So we will find out together what to do and where to look to solve this issue of Wifi authentication. We will see at 1st what you must do on the Asus.

How to proceed when the Asus has an authentication problem on the Wifi network

Forget the Wifi network on your Asus

In cases where the Wi-Fi network to which you wish to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Asus may display the text message: Authentication or authentication error . In cases where the trouble comes from there, the answer is quite simple. Simply forget about the Wifi network in your Asus. To get this done, go to the settings of the Wifi network and keep pressed on the network in question. You will after that have the option to select the option: Forget this network . When it’s done, you’re able to try again to connect to the Wifi network. If the trouble is not fixed, go to the next section.

Press the box button

Whether your box is Orange, Bouygues Telecom, SFR or Numéricable, it may possibly happen to have a trouble of authentication Wifi on the Asus because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you would like to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it is incredibly basic. You should find a synchronization button to press. When ever this is done, a light will normally start blinking. You can after that try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Asus. In cases where it still does not work, go to the next trick.

Retype Security password

At times the authentication problem originates from the technique you type the Wifi network security password. In truth, it is sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its Asus. We for that reason 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 laptop problems, the solution is oftentimes incredibly simple. In truth, 80% of the laptop problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your Asus. After that try to reconnect with your Asus.

Check box settings

In cases where none of the prior solutions did work, the problem might be found to be on the box of your provider. It will for that reason be necessary 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, select this option. After that try to connect your Asus again to Wifi. In cases where the authentication trouble persists, we advise that you contact your service provider or a telephone retail store.
