Occasionally, the Wiko Highway Signs displays the Authentication Problem message when you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network. This kind of error message can potentially result from many places. So, so that you can connect properly to the Wifi network with your Wiko Highway Signs, we decided to produce this guide. So we will find out together what to do and where to look to resolve this problem of Wifi authentication. We will see at first of all what you must do on the Wiko Highway Signs. Finally, we will see what it’s required to do and check on your Wifi box.
What to do when the Wiko Highway Signs has an authentication problem on the Wifi network
Forget the Wifi network on your Wiko Highway Signs
In cases where the Wi-Fi network to which you want to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Wiko Highway Signs may display the message: Authentication or authentication error . In cases where the issue comes from there, the answer is quite simple. Just forget about the Wifi network in your Wiko Highway Signs. To achieve this, 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 carried out, you can try again to connect to the Wifi network. If perhaps the issue is not resolved, go to the next section.
Press the box button
Whether your box is Orange, Bouygues Telecom, SFR or Numéricable, it might happen to have a issue of authentication Wifi on the Wiko Highway Signs because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you want to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it’s incredibly basic. You should find a synchronization button to press. When this is carried out, a light will most of the time start blinking. You may then try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Wiko Highway Signs. In cases where it still does not function, go to the next trick.
Retype Security password
Occasionally the authentication problem originates from the method you type the Wifi network security password. Indeed, it’s sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its Wiko Highway Signs. We therefore 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 a great many laptop problems, the solution is at times incredibly simple. Indeed, 80% of the laptop problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore advise you to restart your box and your Wiko Highway Signs. Then try to reconnect with your Wiko Highway Signs.
Check box settings
In cases where none of the prior solutions did function, the problem might 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 cases where this is not the case, choose this option. Then try to connect your Wiko Highway Signs again to Wifi. In cases where the authentication issue remains, we advise that you contact your service provider or a telephone retail store.
