LG K50S: Wifi Authentication Problem

At times, the LG K50S 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 K50S, we decided to produce 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 must do on the LG K50S. At last, we will see what it is actually important to do and check on your Wifi box.

What to do when the LG K50S has an authentication problem on the Wifi network

Forget the Wifi network on your LG K50S

In the event that the Wi-Fi network to which you want to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your LG K50S may display the message: Authentication or authentication error . In the event that the issue comes from there, the answer is fairly simple. Just forget about the Wifi network in your LG K50S. 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 select the option: Forget this network . When it’s done, you’re able to try again to connect to the Wifi network. If perhaps the issue is not fixed, 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 issue of authentication Wifi on the LG K50S because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you want to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it is actually very simple. 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 K50S. In the event that it still doesn’t work, go to the next trick.

Retype Password

At times the authentication problem comes from the method you type the Wifi network security password. In fact, it is actually sometimes subtle to type a security password Wifi on its LG K50S. We for that reason 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 pc problems, the solution is sometimes very simple. In fact, 80% of the pc problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your LG K50S. Then try to reconnect with your LG K50S.

Check box settings

In the event that non-e of the prior solutions did work, the problem may be found to be on the box of your provider. It will for that reason be important to go in the parameters of the box and to test in the event that the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . In the event that this is not the case, select this option. Then try to connect your LG K50S again to Wifi. In the event that the authentication issue persists, we suggest that you contact your service provider or a telephone retail store.
