Apple TV HD requires further authentication to connect to Wi-Fi I have an Apple TV HD 3rd generation and staying in a rental holiday home. I connected to the home WiFi by sharing the password through my iPhone (15 Pro) and it worked fine. Then we had the fuse box go off while Apple TV was off and it now continues to ask me to authenticate on iPhone or iPad to finalize Wi-Fi connection. However I just end up on the ISP landing page (same as I land when connecting my phone on network for first time) except the connection never finalizes… I have never had this issue despite having connected my Apple TV to hundreds of networks before… Anyone had this issue before?…

Apple TV Wi-Fi password shows incorrect but it isn’t. Error code -100 My Apple TV was working great until yesterday when the WiFi was changed to another in our house. I made sure the correct WiFi was selected but I keep getting an error message that the password is incorrect. I don’t know how to get it to recognize the correct one that is entered. Frustrated in FL.

Please don’t deactivate WPA on the router/access point. Set “WPA2/WPA3 Transitional” to have WPA3 compatible devices connect using WPA3, and to have older devices connect using WPA2.
