Home Wi-Fi issues can be resolved in 91% of cases by unplugging the router, waiting five seconds, and plugging it back in. This restarts the computer and often speeds things up. up. However, if that doesn’t solve your problem, this tutorial will provide a concise reference for dealing with some of the more typical home Wi-Fi issues such as Wi-Fi not working, being slow, disappearing, or not connecting to devices. Keep reading to learn how to fix a slower than normal connection and how to fix a network that won’t connect at all. We’ll also look at various tools you can use to help troubleshoot your connection, no matter what issues arise.
How to troubleshoot home wifi
Step 1: Check AP and Router Settings
Start by checking to see if a wireless access point (AP) or router is nearby and actively offering Wi-Fi service. Always start here, using another Wi-Fi client to determine which is the likely culprit, the network or the client. If multiple clients are unable to connect, please follow the instructions in our wireless network troubleshooting tip to debug probably AP or router or upstream network issues. Otherwise, go to step 2 to debug the affected Android client.
Step 2: Check the wireless adapter
Make sure your Android Wi-Fi adapter is turned on. Before proceeding, make sure your Android device’s Wi-Fi radio is not in Airplane Mode and that Wi-Fi is on and ready to connect. Tap Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi, as shown in Figure 1. If Wi-Fi is off, tap the slider to turn Wi-Fi on. When Wi-Fi is on, a signal indicator appears in the upper right corner of your home screen. Properly connected Wi-Fi takes precedence over mobile broadband, but it may be useful to disable the mobile network connection during Wi-Fi debugging.
Step 3: Check the SSID and IP Address
Make sure your Android client is connected with SSID and IP address. Return to your Android device Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi panel and tap Wi-Fi Settings. Find your network name (SSID) in the list of nearby Wi-Fi networks.
Step 4: Check the network connection with Ping
Once your Android Wi-Fi client has a valid IP address, use Ping to verify network connectivity. Most Android devices do not include a user-accessible ping app, but you can still check network connectivity as follows.
Step 5: Wireless-specific connection issues
If your Android Wi-Fi client still can’t connect, get a valid IP address, or ping any other system connected to the same subnet, it’s time to look for specific wireless issues. The AP/router and the client must use compatible 802.11 standards. Please note the following:
Step 6: Check security settings
If a compatible wireless client and an AP/router can “hear” each other but still cannot connect or exchange traffic, look for a security mismatch. The client must support the security mode required by the AP or router: Open, WEP, WPA or WPA2. Unless a WLAN is open (ie not secure), both endpoints must be configured with (or dynamically given) identical keys to encrypt traffic between them. Compare the security settings on your Android AP/router and Wi-Fi client and try to match them.
Step 7: Check RADIUS Settings
Make sure RADIUS is working. WPA-Enterprise and WPA2-Enterprise register the Android Wi-Fi client on the network and provide encryption keys using an 802.1X compliant RADIUS server. Please refer to our Step 8 Network Troubleshooter to check the RADIUS settings of your AP or router.
Step 8: Check for 802.1X EAP issues
If RADIUS is working but connection requests from your Android Wi-Fi client are rejected, look for an 802.1X Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) issue. Your client must support one of the EAP types required by your RADIUS server and must provide a valid login.
If the only entry in the list is not specified, you must first add a certificate file to your device. To do this, copy a certificate to a storage location accessible from your device. Tip: Email the file to yourself and save it to your device or upload the file to Google Drive.
Step 9: Check for Intermittent Network Connections
If your Android Wi-Fi client still cannot connect to the network, seems very slow all the time, or disconnects frequently, you may be experiencing low-level wireless issues. See our network troubleshooting tip, steps 10 and 11, for further instructions. To make debugging easier, you can also install some more free apps. For example, see the following:
