iPhone / iPod / iPad will not remember (forget) Wi-Fi passwords

By SK 0 comments Last updated July 3, 2012

Many people have reported that their iPhone forgets Wi-Fi passwords. It seems that this problem primarily affects Netgear wireless routers. Users are also reporting that as soon as the Wi-Fi connection is lost, or the phone goes to sleep, the Wi-Fi password has to be re-entered.

Fix

Please try using the following tips below until you resolve your issue:

  1. Reset your network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
  2. If you’re still having problems, try Settings > Wi-Fi > Other > Other Network and add your Wi-Fi information manually.
