  1. Laptop fails to connect to wifi even when correct password is used


    before I went on vacation I was connected to the wifi with no problems, but while I was away, I had a problem and had to reinstall windows
    now im back 10 days later and when I input the correct password it does not connect, "cannot connect to this network"

    here is a list of things I have already tried

    • restart the router
    • restart computer
    • reset network settings

    I don't know too much about computers so please answer in a noob friendly way

    thanks in advance,

    Lucas

    :)

  2. Phone won't connect if I change wifi password

    The new password is definitely allowed and saved - all my other devices connect with no problem every time I change wifi passwords (There are 2 desktops, 1 laptop and 2 other phones using my wifi). It's just this Lumia 520 which doesn't connect.
    Or am I missing something?

  3. Phone won't connect if I change wifi password

    I've finally figured out what happened, but the problem is only temporarily solved.

    I had changed my wifi password. And the phone won't connect with the new password. If I change the wifi password back to the old one it connects.

    So it's definitely a phone issue.
    I wish I could change my wifi password and have my phone working..

  4. Laptop fails to connect to wifi even when correct password is used

    Phone won't connect if I change wifi password

    My Nokia Lumia 520 never had any connection problems, but today it won't connect not even when I press the WPS button on the modem or type the wifi password. I get the message:

    ''The Wifi network didn't respond, try again later''.

    Wifi is working fine on all other devices (pc, laptop, tablet and other phones) so I'm guessing it's a phone issue? Phone's wifi was working fine yesterday.
