Reset your Network Settings:

Probably a change you made. So reset your network settings.

  1. Go Here: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't connect to a Wi-Fi network - Apple Support
  2. Scroll To: Reset your Network Settings.
  3. Proceed from there as necessary

What happens when you try?


You should just need to tap on the (i) icon next to the network name, and then on the “Forget This Network” option.


Note 1: you can only forget networks you are nearby, so the iPhone can see them.

Note 2: If it just says “Join Network” it means you have not joined it before, so there is nothing to forget.
