Tablet Wi-Fi Connection

[Jaimsieboy]

I am trying to connect my Tablet to my home PC Wi-Fi but every time I enter the Modem No. a small padlock icon appears on the Tablet screen preventing me from accessing the Internet... any tips etc.

Are there any capital letters, that you might not be using, in the password?

[Jaimsieboy]

Hi Jomlett, according to the Modem No. it is all uppercase letters

[Aquariel]

Are you setting your tablet to use all upper case? On my Android tablet, you can set the typing mode to either initial capital letter, lower case, or upper case.

On my router the admin password is uppercase and password numbers and lowercase letters...

Hi Aquariel, I am setting the Password letters to all Uppercase as shown on the base of the Sky Modem unit.

When I try to connect, the Tablet is showing Saved, secured with WPA

You might have an IP Address problem. This might explain...

The padlock should just be showing that you've got a secure connection (which is what you want).

Try this;
Turn your router off.
Wait 2 minutes.
Turn your router on.
Wait 2 minutes again.
Search for the connection with your tablet.
Cross your fingers!
