Q: Wifi "Password Incorrect" though same password works for everyone else || iPhone 5c iOS 9.3.2 and 9.3.3

Hi everyone,

 

     So right now I am on vacation and at the condo where we are staying I am having trouble connecting to the wifi network. We have the correct password and the network shows up but when I try to connect it says "Password Incorrect". It is really frustrating because my laptop will connect, along with the phones of everyone else in my family.

 

     I have tried resetting the network setting, toggling the wifi/airplane mode/cellular data. I have turned off network services, done a hard restart and a ton of other things that similar discussions have said to do. Any possible solutions?

 

     I have an iPhone 5c and I was on iOS 9.3.2 when I first encountered the problem so I upgraded to 9.3.3 via iTunes but the problem persists. Any possible help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

iPhone 5c, iOS 9.3.3, Wifi connection incorrect password

    Maybe there is a limitation on the number of devices that can be connected to the wifi.

     

    A test disconnect one device an try to connect your phone.

    Have you tried the suggestions in this article:

     

    If you need help with your Wi-Fi password - Apple Support

     

    especially:

     

    What if I know my password, but the network won’t accept it?

    In iOS: Tap Settings > Wi-Fi >  > Forget this network. Then try to rejoin.
