Wi-Fi problem

[mancini]

My Samsung smartphone shows "Authentication Required" message when I try to connect the Wi-Fi network. I have saved Wi-Fi password and Wi-Fi network is also working fine. I tried using "forget password" option, but no use. how to solve this problem?

Don't know may be that is a glitch.
Try resetting your router and install default settings.
this is not the issue of your phone, this once happened with me too and after doing this it worked.

One possible solution to this problem is to "forget" the Wi-Fi network entirely and then try reconnecting to it from scratch. Here are the steps to do that:


Go to your smartphone's Wi-Fi settings
Find the network that you are having trouble connecting to and select it
Select "Forget" or "Forget Network" to remove the saved network
Restart your smartphone and try connecting to the Wi-Fi network again
When prompted for a password, re-enter the correct Wi-Fi password and try connecting again
If that doesn't work, you may want to check if the Wi-Fi network is using a captive portal. A captive portal is a web page that requires authentication before allowing you to use the Wi-Fi network. To authenticate, you may need to enter your login credentials or agree to terms and conditions. If the Wi-Fi network is using a captive portal, you should see a notification or a pop-up on your smartphone that directs you to the captive portal page.
