Wiko Y80: Wifi Authentication Problem

Sometimes, the Wiko Y80 displays the Authentication Problem message when you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network. This sort of error message can possibly come from many places. So, so that you may connect properly to the Wifi network with your Wiko Y80, we decided to produce this tuto. So we will find out together what to do and where to look to solve this issue of Wifi authentication. We will see at initially what you have to do on the Wiko Y80. At last, we will see what it can be necessary to do and check on your Wifi box.

How to proceed when the Wiko Y80 has an authentication problem on the Wifi network

Forget the Wifi network on your Wiko Y80

If perhaps the Wi-Fi network to which you wish to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Wiko Y80 may display the message: Authentication or authentication error . If perhaps the issue comes from there, the solution is very simple. Simply forget about the Wifi network in your Wiko Y80. 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 completed, you may try again to connect to the Wifi network. If perhaps the issue is not resolved, 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 issue of authentication Wifi on the Wiko Y80 because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you need to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it can be incredibly simple. You should find a synchronization button to press. When this is completed, a light will normally start blinking. You’re able to after that try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Wiko Y80. If perhaps it still does not work, go to the next trick.

Retype Security password

Sometimes the authentication problem comes from the way you type the Wifi network password. In fact, it can be sometimes subtle to type a password Wifi on its Wiko Y80. 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 from time to time incredibly simple. In fact, 80% of the pc problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore advise you to restart your box and your Wiko Y80. Then try to reconnect with your Wiko Y80.

Check box settings

If perhaps none of the previous solutions did work, the problem may be found to be on the box of your provider. It will for that reason be necessary to go in the parameters of the box and to check whenever the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If perhaps this is not the case, select this option. Then try to connect your Wiko Y80 again to Wifi. If perhaps the authentication issue persists, we suggest that you contact your service provider or a telephone store.
