Press the box button

Retype Password
Sometimes the authentication problem comes from the solution you type the Wifi network security password. Indeed, it is sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its OnePlus One. We consequently advise you to try all the following possibilities:
- Type the code without spaces or hyphens
- Type the security password in uppercase
- Type the security password in lowercase
Restart your box
As in several computer problems, the solution is at times extremely simple. Indeed, 80% of the computer problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your OnePlus One. After that try to reconnect with your OnePlus One.
Check box settings
If non-e of the previous answers did function, the problem may be found to be on the box of your provider. It will consequently be necessary to go in the parameters of the box and to test if perhaps the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If this is not the case, choose this option. After that try to connect your OnePlus One again to Wifi. If the authentication problem continues, we highly recommend that you contact your service provider or a telephone store.
