Mi 6X Wi-Fi Saved but connecting - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

Hello
Router has a 2 SSID xxx-2G and xxx-5G. I can not access router interface and resetting it to factory settings is not an option.
All other devices including mobile phones, laptop and even washer can connect to this router either to 2G or 5G.
Steps I have tried with my Mi 6X;
Forget and reconnect
Reboot phone and router
Turn on/off Smart Switch and Assistant
Flight mode with only Wi-Fi turned on
Reset phone's network settings
Factory reset a phone
still no luck. What should I try next?

HTC one wifi issues FIX!

Hi,
First of all i'm sorry for my English its not my main language.
After having troubles connecting my WiFi at home i start looking in forums for solution.
I had trouble to connect my home network, it shows like connected but there is no real internet connection.
I tried that power button thing and didn't work, i tried hard reset and didn't work.
After I saw a guy that said its related to security in my router so i start digging and realized that when i disable my WiFi security its connecting.
So the solution is:
1. go to your router setting>> wireless setting>> disable the password required.
2. connect to your home WiFi from your device, see if connected (hope it does)
3. go to your router setting>> wireless setting>> enable password required (WPA/2)
4. connect to your home WiFi from your device with the new password.
It works for me, hope i helped.
no luck for me

WiFi authenticationproblems unless I'm next to router

I've looked all over to find a solution but still nothing works. I'm just not to keen yet on factory resetting my Z1. so here's the problem:
Whenever I try connecting to my home network (2.4 G or 5 G) and I'm not right next to the router, the signal strenght drops to 1 bar and stops connecting. Sometimes when I try to connect it doesn't even start the connecting process. If the phone tries to connect automatically it'll say it has an authentication problem.
This problem started since the 5.0.2 update. At first it was only when the connection wasn't that good, but now even when there's only 2 foot and a wall between the phone and the router.
What Ive already tried:
Resetting router to factory settings
splitting the 2.4G and 5G SSIDs
turn phone off and on
start WiFi while in airplane mode
changing ipconfig from DCHP to static
restarting router
Changing router settings like channel, manually input phone MAC, banwidth, TPC mitigation
thanks

Nokia 8, wifi 5Ghz problem

i have a nokia 8 for a month now . im facing this problem on my wifi that only 2.4Ghz signal is displayed in my wifi list, it seems that wifi is not working properly because there are times that 5Ghz signal are displayed in my wifi list. its like sometimes it works sometimes not and take note that in using the same router with 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz. Also my other phone (Xperia XZ) is working will with both 5Ghz and 2Ghz.
Some routers simply do not work properly with particular phones. I saw such behaviour in the past. Check your Nokia with different router. b
sir i already try on different router, modem ang portable router but i get the same issue.
Try resetting the phone.
i tried it already. reset wifi and data, also factory reset but nothing happened. i already returned to the nokia store. thanks your response sir.
I had the same problem and I think I found the solution,
first of all I tried rebooting and resetting my Nokia 8 and I didn't fix it, updateing the phone did not fix it, returning the phone for a replacement I found that the new phone showed the 5ghz band then an error message appeared and no 5ghz wifi were shown anymore!
the problem is when you set up a new phone you will choose a country, this option will set not only the language but other settings as well among them the channels used by 5ghz wifi in your country! the router might be set to a different country using different channel!
solution: access your router settings and check your wifi 5ghz advanced settings choose a country matching your phone settings and restart your router.
if this didn't work try an android app called wifi analyzer and check channel settings for 5ghz after choosing your country it will show you which channel are open for 5ghz in your country,pick a channel and return to your router 5ghz wlan advanced settings and change the channel option from automatic to your the one from wifi analyzer and apply and restart your router!
hopefully this will work

Can't connect to any wifi after upgrading to android 10

Hello,
I upgraded my stock MI2 to android 10 and now I can't connect to any wifi. I can see the wifi, but I always get "Failed to save network".
Resetting all network settings didn't do anything...
Any options besides full reset?
Thanks!
I've got similar problem, can't connect to my home WiFi, but at work and at friends home WiFi works well. Network factory reset didn't help.
The problem seems to be at the handshake WPA2 at the moment with Android 10. Change your network to WPA and it should work perfectly. Let's hope this gets patched soon.
same for me. device also freezes quite often, feels like an early beta.
thanks for the hint!
Exactly the same issue for me;
* As soon as I updated to Android 10 on a stock Mi A2, my work, home and public WiFi access failes with "Failed to connect to Network".
* Changing wifi SSID settings results in a "Failed to Save Network" error.
I will try downgrading the home security to WPA.

Honestly downgrading the security isn't an option for me. Can I roll-back to android 9 somehow?
I have the same issue. Channing the WiFi network's security settings has no effect. Anyone find a solution? Has anyone tried a factory reset?
after update my MAC has changed and by default it uses dynamic MAC address regarding security. I changed it to static MAC and checked my MAC filtering option once again to ensure the right MAC is set

In my case, I can connect to the home network but not the work network (Eduroam network).
I have also changed the MAC address from random to the one corresponding to the device but it did not solve the problem.
have same issue after Android 10 upgrade, any idea how to fix this wifi issue?
Did your router hide SSID? if so, manual input your SSID and type of network and the password. At the very bottom you'll see Advance Settings then chose Hidden Network to "Yes". If still not working probably there's was a problem during update installation. My Mi A2 doesn't have any problem after Android 10 Update.
after trying many things, only reset to factory settings finally fixed my wifi issue
Update from Late March 2020

Tried a number of things, including resetting all data stored settings, dropping down to WPA and even open (unsecured) network. Still no WiFi connectivity. WiFi apps such as WiFi analyser can see and engage with APs, but not connect.
The "Failed to save Network" error I suspect may be the issue ... each time I try to connect it asks for a password each and every time.
I just updated to the A2 March 2020 update, and this has not fixed the issues. Definitely happened immediately after the original Android 10 update.
I'll have to wait until things settle a little, then try a factory reset. Or a new phone
did you try reset complete phone to factory setting? it should help
I'm with the same problem! I just upgraded to Android 10 today and I can't connect to any wi-fi network!!!! I tried to restart my Xiaomi Mi A2, restart my modem, restart internet settings, add wifi manually, and other things and none worked
Same problem here after March update

My Wife's A2 just received the OTA Update to Android 10, which already contains the March update, and the same issue happened. Tried all the tips, nothing worked (changing the MAC to "Device Mac", resetting WiFi connections, Using static IPs).
The only thing that worked for me was setting my WiFi network (on my router) to use WPA-PSK(TKIP) + WPA2-PSK(AES) instead of just WPA2-PSK(AES) as it was configured before.
It seems there's a bug when using WPA2 (or AES).
Factory Reset fixed it for me.
After spending hours trying various options. I just did a factory reset and my Wifi has returned. What a performance, but wish I had done it earlier. Although it's a pain having to set up everything again, it wont take me as long as I have spent already trying different things.
Same issue here with the Android 10 update in April 2020..
No wifi networks seem to be saved and connecting simply does not work, I have a open wifi near me (payed hotspot) but a 'cannot connect' error pops up instantly when tapping it.
My home network asks for password but after entering it I also get the 'cannot save wifi network' and 'cannot connect' errors.
Pretty lame, I was planning a factory reset anyway but having to rush it sucks.
Will post results of factory reset here, but might take me some days. Especially with all the 2FA misery.
