WiFi Connection Problem...Help please.

[Johnnyboy5]

Hi all. I would be very grateful if anyone can help with a new problem I'm experiencing. I've had the Nexus 5 for over a year and it has performed very well. My wifi all of a sudden just stopped working the other day, BUT at only my home location! Importantly, the home wifi still works perfectly with all 10 other devices in my house (5 kids!). Still connects automatically at work and all other locations. Very strange, as it recognizes the network, obtains IP address and then cannot Authenticate. Here is what I've done so far to address:

-rebooted the phone (several times)
-re-set the router and modem at home (several times)
-"forget" the wifi address and then re-installed it manually
-turned wifi off on the phone and restarted it
-switched back to davlik with no luck and then back to ART

Any ideas out there? Thx.

Good day!

Please try the following:
1. Make sure you have entered the correct password.
2. Try forgetting the network from one of the 10 devices and then try to connect. Maybe your WiFi can only accommodate 10 users.

Please tell me if it works.

Thx for the suggestion. Will try this evening after work, but I'm skeptical, as all these devices have been connected for quite some time. My N5 just stopped connecting, without any external changes to the network, or additional devices. Will try anyway though. Other suggestions?

You've already tried a bunch of my tips, but review this guide: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...roubleshooting-wi-fi-connection-problems.html

Tried all of these suggestions last night, and still no joy. Any other suggestions?

Not sure if this will help, but consider changing your DNS server: The Ultimate Guide to Changing Your DNS Server

Also, does your router have one-touch WPS? Maybe try that for security.

Thx Diddy. Will give these suggestions a try on the weekend.

Hi. Try also to contact your ISP.
