iPhone 5 can't remember Wi-fi password

Here's the situation.

I enter my router's password and it connects.

I can browse with no problems.

But if I disconnect the connection by either getting out of range or turning off wifi on iphone, the iphone doesn't save the router password. The next time I try to use my wi-fi, I have to enter the password all over again.


Help me please!


Using a D-Link Xtreme N Gigabit Router (DIR-655).

iPhone 5, iOS 6

Even i had this issue on my iphone 4S (iOS 6.1.3). Strangely it happens on one router and not on other router. More strangely, It used to work fine on the router currently having issues with. I changed the settings of my router to assign static IP to all my PCs and iphones. What causes the issue dont know. Anyway as someone posted earlier, going to 'Others' and filling up all info fixes the issue.


But the main issue is why it works on some Router and not on others.
