Password
For no reason at all, my wifi network wants me to join and won't accept my password? Any suggestions?
I reset my router to factory settings and installed the firmware update. Seems to be working fine now.

- Me too. How do I fix this. I need step by step instructions please
Double check your wireless passphrases on your routers. You can find your respective router manuals here
- Thank you so much for attaching the manual, and for your input. I got it to stop asking for a password after turning off "ask to join networks " in phone/tablet settings and doing a soft reset on devices and router.

- Thank you for your input, it wasn't what I needed to do but, I really Appreciate the input✌🏼
- First I turned off "ask to join networks" in Settings on my iPhone, then I restarted my iPhone, restarted my router...and it went back to me being automatically assigned to my secure network (it stopped asking for the password)
