Occasionally, the Cat S32 displays the Authentication Problem message when you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network. This sort of error message can possibly originate from several places. So, so that you’re able to connect properly to the Wifi network with your Cat S32, we decided to produce this guide. So we will discover together what to do and where to look to solve this issue of Wifi authentication. We will see at first of all what you must do on the Cat S32. At last, we will see what it’s necessary to do and check on your Wifi box.
How to proceed when the Cat S32 has an authentication problem on the Wifi network
Forget the Wifi network on your Cat S32
If the Wi-Fi network to which you wish to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Cat S32 may display the message: Authentication or authentication error . If the trouble comes from there, the solution is fairly simple. Just forget about the Wifi network in your Cat S32. To achieve this, 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 . Once it’s done, you’re able to try again to connect to the Wifi network. If perhaps the trouble is not resolved, go to the next section.
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 Cat S32 because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you wish to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it’s extremely simple. You should find a synchronization button to press. When this is done, a light will normally start blinking. You’re able to after that try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Cat S32. If it still will not function, go to the next trick.
Retype Password
Occasionally the authentication problem comes from the method you type the Wifi network password. In fact, it’s sometimes subtle to type a password Wifi on its Cat S32. 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 many laptop problems, the solution is oftentimes extremely simple. In fact, 80% of the laptop problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore advise you to restart your box and your Cat S32. Then try to reconnect with your Cat S32.
Check box settings
If non-e of the previous solutions did function, the problem could possibly be found to be on the box of your provider. It will therefore be necessary to go in the parameters of the box and to check if perhaps the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If this is not the case, select this option. Then try to connect your Cat S32 again to Wifi. If the authentication trouble carries on, we highly recommend that you contact your service provider or a telephone store.
