Lumia 520 can't connect to any wifi network

[WPCentral Question]

I have a lumia 520 and all is work fine but one day when I go to connect to my wifi, I could not to connect. When I tap to any wifi, he does not require a password, but displays a message "Your phone can't connect to the wifi network -name of wifi-". 520 found all wifi nearby but I can't connect to any. I try hard reset and find fix on internet but nothing helped.

Weird... Soft resets have always fixed that problem for me

Are you running 8.1? I am and the same issue on my 520 started yesterday. I'll try a hard reset today. Have you tried to flash the firmware with the Nokia tool?

 

[Matej Kajkara]

Yes, I running 8.1. I try hard reset but nothing happens. No i don't, if a hard reset don't solve problem to you, can you try flash and tell me if that helps.

Soft reset on lumia 520 volume down + power key?

I posted this question but i 'm not been logged in

It just happened to me the in company I work, my cellphone is a Lumia 720, my coworker just bought a new 520 and have the same problem.

"You can't connect with the <wifi name> network."


Does anyone have a solution?

Just upgrades to 8.1 and cant connect to network any more (home or office)
Had the same issue when I first used the phone. It would refuse to connect to home network, while it was ok at the store.
Tried hard reset , still no luck
Do I throw the phone out of the window or windows out of the phone ?

Microsoft , are you listening ?

 

[Ganesh Saptharishi]

Folks,

Just select the network and delete the same. lumia searches for the available network and this time you should be able to enter the WIFI password.

Hope this helps.

i finally got a solution to this after weeks of looking and trying for some reason you need to turn off your mobile data to get wifi

 

[ronald reid]

hi just turn off your mobile data then it works just fine

See below post. There they mention it's router related. Not sure if this is also valid for a office router.

[Sanoj Bhaskar]

why after updating the phone wi-fi creating problem in connecting? what is this? are you listening microsoft team?

 

[Harrie-S]

First of all we are not Microsoft. We are a fan-based website and people here are trying to help.
What you could try (if you not already did it).
1 Soft Reset.
2 Go to SETTINGS > WiFi >manage > and there delete the office network and add it again.
3 Ask your IT department for help.
4 Contact Microsoft.

Settings>WiFi>Manage Works !!
Sometimes WiFi already in the List couldn't be connected so easily.
This is the Only Reason.

Here is what worked for me. I selected the Wi-Fi settings and chose the "Manage" option. Delete any saved "OPEN" networks. As soon as I did that I was immediately able to connect to secure networks again.

 

[Binu CJ]

Turn ON Airplane Mode and then Turn it OFF.
Once done, try connecting to the Wifi Network.
Worked for me.

 

[mady Mady]

Check whether unfortunately did you put static ip address. Just disable the static ip address so that wifi can provide new network settings.

 

[Alan Fett]

I just saw this question , if it helps anything, I went to the list of my saved wifi access points, deleted some of them ,not all (College Wifi), tried to connect and worked...dunno really why but meh. :eck:
