Huawei P10: Wifi Authentication Problem

Sometimes, the Huawei P10 displays the Authentication Problem message when ever you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network. This kind of error message can potentially result from many places. So, so that you can connect properly to the Wifi network with your Huawei P10, we decided to write this guide. So we will find out together what to do and where to look to solve this issue of Wifi authentication. We will see at first of all what you have to do on the Huawei P10. At last, we will see what it is actually required to do and check on your Wifi box.

How to proceed when the Huawei P10 has an authentication problem on the Wifi network

Forget the Wifi network on your Huawei P10

If the Wi-Fi network to which you want to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Huawei P10 may display the text: Authentication or authentication error . If the problem comes from there, the answer is quite easy. Simply forget about the Wifi network in your Huawei P10. To accomplish 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 is completed, you can try again to connect to the Wifi network. In the event that the problem is not solved, 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 problem of authentication Wifi on the Huawei P10 because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you want to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it is actually incredibly basic. You should find a synchronization button to press. When ever this is completed, a light will most of the time start blinking. You can then try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Huawei P10. If it still will not function, go to the next trick.

Retype Password

Sometimes the authentication problem comes from the technique you type the Wifi network password. Indeed, it is actually sometimes subtle to type a password Wifi on its Huawei P10. We for that reason 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 pc problems, the solution is at times incredibly simple. Indeed, 80% of the pc problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your Huawei P10. Then try to reconnect with your Huawei P10.

Check box settings

If non-e of the prior solutions did function, the problem may perhaps be found to be on the box of your provider. It will for that reason be required to go in the parameters of the box and to test if perhaps the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If this is not the case, select this option. Then try to connect your Huawei P10 again to Wifi. If the authentication problem carries on, we recommend that you contact your service provider or a telephone retail store.
