Android Central Question

Since I can connect to other networks with no problem, I suspect that somehow my home network is being blocked for some reason. It disconnects in 3 seconds.
I have tried 'forgetting' the home wifi, resetting everything. It still doesn't work.
Suggestions?

Have you restarted your router? (There should be a little button on the back - it may be recessed - to restart it.)

If that doesn't fix it, try the 30-30-30 reset:

Hold the reset button in for 30 seconds. Still keeping it pressed in, remove power. Keep power removed for 30 seconds. Reconnect the power and keep the reset button in for another 30 seconds.

Now it's factory reset. (Look in the manual for the login and/or password.) Set it back with your old password and encryption (probably SPA2 Personal/AES) so everything else can still sign in.

Now try connecting your phone.
