Sometimes, the Honor 8A displays the Authentication Problem message when you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network. This sort of error message can possibly come from many places. So, so that you can actually connect properly to the Wifi network with your Honor 8A, we decided to write this tuto. So we will discover together what to do and where to look to solve this problem of Wifi authentication. We will see at first what you have to do on the Honor 8A. Finally, we will see what it is actually necessary to do and check on your Wifi box.
What to do when the Honor 8A has an authentication problem on the Wifi network
Forget the Wifi network on your Honor 8A
If perhaps the Wi-Fi network to which you want to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Honor 8A may display the text message: Authentication or authentication error . If perhaps the problem comes from there, the answer is quite easy. Simply forget about the Wifi network in your Honor 8A. To do this, go to the settings of the Wifi network and keep pressed on the network in question. You will then have the option to select the option: Forget this network . When it’s completed, you can actually try again to connect to the Wifi network. If perhaps the problem is not fixed, 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 problem of authentication Wifi on the Honor 8A because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you want to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it is actually incredibly simple. You should find a synchronization button to press. When this is completed, a light will normally start blinking. You can then try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Honor 8A. If perhaps it still doesn’t work, go to the next trick.
Retype Security password
Sometimes the authentication problem originates from the technique you type the Wifi network security password. Certainly, it is actually sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its Honor 8A. 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 several computer problems, the solution is at times incredibly simple. Certainly, 80% of the computer problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your Honor 8A. Then try to reconnect with your Honor 8A.
Check box settings
If perhaps non-e of the prior answers did work, the problem might 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 test in cases where the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If perhaps this is not the case, select this option. Then try to connect your Honor 8A again to Wifi. If perhaps the authentication problem continues, we recommend that you contact your service provider or a telephone store.
