So we will see 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 Meizu 16s. Finally, we will see what it can be important to do and check on your Wifi box.
How to proceed when the Meizu 16s has an authentication problem on the Wifi network
Forget the Wifi network on your Meizu 16s
If the Wi-Fi network to which you want to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Meizu 16s may display the text: Authentication or authentication error . If the problem comes from there, the solution is fairly simple. Simply forget about the Wifi network in your Meizu 16s. 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 choose the option: Forget this network . Once it is done, you can actually 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 might happen to have a problem of authentication Wifi on the Meizu 16s 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 ever this is done, a light will normally start blinking. You’re able to then try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Meizu 16s. If it still doesn’t work, go to the next trick.
Retype Password
Oftentimes the authentication problem comes from the method you type the Wifi network password. In truth, it can be sometimes subtle to type a password Wifi on its Meizu 16s. 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 many laptop problems, the solution is sometimes extremely simple. In truth, 80% of the laptop problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your Meizu 16s. Then try to reconnect with your Meizu 16s.
Check box settings
If none of the prior answers 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 cases where the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If this is not the case, choose this option. Then try to connect your Meizu 16s again to Wifi. If the authentication problem carries on, we suggest that you contact your service provider or a telephone retail store.
