iPhone won't connect to wifi (but everything else is connected)

Out of the blue my iPhone started giving an "incorrect wifi password" message when connecting to my home network-- even when the password was shared from my iPad (which was connected to the wifi).


I turned it off a couple times, and asked it to forget the network once. Still won't connect.

  •  You need to sign in to your router.
  • The Wi-Fi network name, or SSID (service set identifier), is the name your network that has a password.

Go to -> Settings -> tap Wi-Fi -> tap on the hideen Password -> enter Passcode -> you will then see the Wi-Fi Password.


If they are On, turn Off Hotspot & VPN.
