How to proceed when the Wileyfox has an authentication problem on the Wifi network
Forget the Wifi network on your Wileyfox
In the event that the Wi-Fi network to which you desire to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Wileyfox may display the text: Authentication or authentication error .

Press the box button
Whether your box is Orange, Bouygues Telecom, SFR or Numéricable, it may possibly happen to have a problem of authentication Wifi on the Wileyfox because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you would like to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it is actually incredibly simple. You should find a synchronization button to press. When this is carried out, a light will normally start blinking. Youre able to after that try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Wileyfox. In the event that it still does not 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. In fact, it is actually sometimes subtle to type a password Wifi on its Wileyfox. 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 computer problems, the solution is occasionally incredibly simple. In fact, 80% of the computer problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your Wileyfox. Then try to reconnect with your Wileyfox.
Check box settings
In the event that 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 test in the event that 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 Wileyfox again to Wifi. In the event that the authentication problem persists, we advise that you contact your service provider or a telephone retail store.
