Sometimes, the LG G7 displays the Authentication Problem message when you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network. This sort of error message can possibly be caused by a lot of places. So, so that you’re able to connect properly to the Wifi network with your LG G7, we decided to produce this guide. So we will find out together what to do and where to look to resolve this problem of Wifi authentication. We will see at first what you must do on the LG G7. Finally, we will see what it can be important to do and check on your Wifi box.
What to do when the LG G7 has an authentication problem on the Wifi network
Forget the Wifi network on your LG G7
If perhaps the Wi-Fi network to which you want to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your LG G7 may display the text: Authentication or authentication error . If perhaps the problem comes from there, the solution is quite simple. Just forget about the Wifi network in your LG G7. 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 choose the option: Forget this network . When it is done, you’re able to try again to connect to the Wifi network. If the problem is not solved, go to the next step.
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 LG G7 because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you wish to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it can be extremely 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 LG G7. If perhaps it still does not work, go to the next trick.
Retype Password
Sometimes the authentication problem comes from the technique you type the Wifi network security password. Indeed, it can be sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its LG G7. We consequently 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 from time to time extremely simple. Indeed, 80% of the computer problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your LG G7. After that try to reconnect with your LG G7.
Check box settings
If perhaps non-e of the prior answers did work, the problem could be found to be on the box of your provider. It will consequently be important to go in the parameters of the box and to check if perhaps the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If perhaps this is not the case, choose this option. After that try to connect your LG G7 again to Wifi. If perhaps the authentication problem remains, we recommend that you contact your service provider or a telephone retail store.
