So, so that you may connect properly to the Wifi network with your Honor X8, we decided to produce this tuto. So we will find out together what to do and where to look to resolve this issue of Wifi authentication. We will see at 1st what you have to do on the Honor X8.

How to proceed when the Honor X8 has an authentication problem on the Wifi network

Forget the Wifi network on your Honor X8

If the Wi-Fi network to which you desire to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Honor X8 may display the text message: Authentication or authentication error . If the issue comes from there, the solution is fairly simple. Just forget about the Wifi network in your Honor X8. To do 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 choose the option: Forget this network . When it’s done, you may try again to connect to the Wifi network. If the issue is not solved, go to the next step.

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 Honor X8 because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you need to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it is actually very basic. You should find a synchronization button to press. When this is done, a light will normally start blinking. You can after that try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Honor X8. If it still does not work, go to the next trick.

Retype Security password

From time to time the authentication problem comes from the solution you type the Wifi network security password. Certainly, it is actually sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its Honor X8. 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 many laptop problems, the solution is sometimes very simple. Certainly, 80% of the laptop problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your Honor X8. After that try to reconnect with your Honor X8.

Check box settings

If non-e of the prior solutions did work, the problem might be found to be on the box of your provider. It will therefore be important 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 circumstance, choose this option. After that try to connect your Honor X8 again to Wifi. If the authentication issue remains, we suggest that you contact your service provider or a telephone retail store.
