Q: How to use my WIFI without the "Authentication Required" pop-up appearing on iOS10?

I have recently upgraded my iPhone 6S to iOS10 and now ever since then I can't connect to my Wifi without the pop-up "Authentication Required" appearing on the screen every few seconds.

The Internet has suggested resetting my network settings which solves the problem as long as I don't connect back to my home Wifi. However, I want to use my Wifi so I want to know is there is a way to get rid of this rather annoying pop-up while still being able to use my internet at home. Thank you.

iPhone 6s, iOS 10.0.3

    Hi

    Go to WiFi on iPhone  forget this network

    Turn your router off for 23/30 seconds

    Then on iPhone try a reboot press & hold power button & menu button hold both down until

    You see apple logo this may take 30 seconds .

    Cheers
