T-Mobile G1: Wifi Authentication Problem

From time to time, the T-Mobile G1 displays the Authentication Problem message when you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network. This kind of error message can possibly result from a lot of places. So, so that you may connect properly to the Wifi network with your T-Mobile G1, we decided to produce this guide. So we will find out together what to do and where to look to resolve this issue of Wifi authentication. We will see at first of all what you need to do on the T-Mobile G1. Finally, we will see what it can be required to do and check on your Wifi box.

How to proceed when the T-Mobile G1 has an authentication problem on the Wifi network

Forget the Wifi network on your T-Mobile G1

In the event that the Wi-Fi network to which you want to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your T-Mobile G1 may display the text message: Authentication or authentication error . In the event that the trouble comes from there, the solution is very simple. Simply forget about the Wifi network in your T-Mobile G1. To get this done, go to the settings of the Wifi network and keep pressed on the network in question. You will then have the option to choose the option: Forget this network . Once it is done, you may try again to connect to the Wifi network. If the trouble is not solved, go to the next step.

Press the box button

Whether your box is Orange, Bouygues Telecom, SFR or Numéricable, it may happen to have a trouble of authentication Wifi on the T-Mobile G1 because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you want to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it can be incredibly basic. You should find a synchronization button to press. When ever this is done, a light will normally start blinking. You may then try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your T-Mobile G1. In the event that it still doesn’t function, go to the next trick.

Retype Password

From time to time the authentication problem comes from the method you type the Wifi network password. Indeed, it can be sometimes subtle to type a password Wifi on its T-Mobile G1. We therefore advise you to try all the following possibilities:

  • Type the code without spaces or hyphens
  • Type the password in uppercase
  • Type the password in lowercase

Restart your box

As in a great many pc problems, the solution is at times incredibly simple. Indeed, 80% of the pc problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your T-Mobile G1. Then try to reconnect with your T-Mobile G1.

Check box settings

In the event that none of the previous answers did function, the problem may be found to be on the box of your provider. It will therefore be required to go in the parameters of the box and to check if perhaps the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . In the event that this is not the case, choose this option. Then try to connect your T-Mobile G1 again to Wifi. In the event that the authentication trouble carries on, we suggest that you contact your service provider or a telephone store.
