How To Fix Galaxy S8 Authentication Error

Owners of the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus who try to connect to different WiFi networks could potentially see a message saying WiFi Authentication Error. If you see this message, you will not be able to connect your smartphone to a WiFi network until you fix whatever is causing the error.

The easiest way to correct the Samsung Galaxy S8 Authentication Error is by restarting your smartphone and re-entering your password. If all goes well, a soft reset may be enough to solve the problem.

The error message will show up when the WiFi connection is identified wrong based on the username and password you enter. If WiFi authentication fails on your smartphone, there is definitely something wrong that needs to be corrected. Here are a couple different ways to fix the Samsung Galaxy S8 Authentication Error if rebooting the Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8 Plus didn’t help.

Authentication Error For Galaxy S8 And Galaxy S8 Plus
There have been reports that you can fix the Samsung Galaxy S8 Authentication Error by powering off any Bluetooth device that may be synced with the Galaxy S8 when the WAP is on. Fixing this could solve the problems you have been having with the Samsung Galaxy S8 Authentication Error.

Rebooting the Wireless Router
If the solutions above don’t solve your problem, then the issue is with the router or modem. The WiFi IP address may conflict with different smartphones that are all using the same network. Other smartphones can interfere with unrelated smartphones’ networks. That is the main issue with the Galaxy S8 Authentication Error. Rebooting your modem or router is the best way to fix this problem.

If all goes well, one of these suggestions should have your Galaxy S8 or S8 Plus working like you expect it to.
