    Default PB won't save wifi network

    Whenever I turn off my Playbook and then turn it back on, I have to put my password back in to reconnect to router. This randomly started happening a few days ago. I don't remember changing any settings.

    go in to your wifi profiles
    and if it is saved there, delete it

    reboot pb and router
    and re try

    Ditto same problem. No wifi's can be saved on one playbook, OK on other Playbook.They all disappeared and can't be saved.
    I have over 150 apps. So, definitely don't want to do anything drastic!
    I have 3 button rebooted. Didn't fix.
    I am waiting hopefully for next update!!!!

    My 64gb PB shows the same issue.
    I tried the reboot, have the most updated OS and also have many apps.
    No luck.

    Never had a problem with that. How about some screen shots of your settings?

    Default Yes. Same for me in UK

    Since last Friday, my PB will not remember Saved Networks. I have to connect manually each time I use PB. Do we think it is an outcome of recent small update?
    No problems at all with connecting before. Tried the reboot of PB and Router to no avail.

    Nothing to do with the update. Mine and most still work as always. Maybe an app you've installed?

    I am also thinking an app has done this.

    Another thing I have noticed that started at the same time is when turning on the PB, wifi is on...even if it was turned off before turning the PB off.

    What did you install before it started happening? Delete it and see if OK.

    Could you please post directions how to back everything up and wipe.
    Sorry for the lack of experience with the PB.
    I appreciate your help.
    Will the wipe include the OS update?
    I ask only so I can make sure I have enough time to reinstall everything before I need the PB again.

    Thanks

    You can use desktop manager to backup or just copy your files to a computer. The dm backup will not backup your apps but they can be installed again from app world. I'm not sure I would restore settings as this might get you right back where you are. I'm not sure if not restoring settings if your game progress will not be restored either as I just copy my files I want.

    To wipe, gear, security, security wipe. I would use it for a bit before restoring anything to see how it goes and if all good then restore. After the wipe you will go thru the setup again and it will update again. Make sure your battery is charged before doing it also.

    I was having the same problem. Installing the new beta OS 2.1 seems to have fixed the problem.

    Default I solved disabling password security

    In the main menu-> Security -> Password
    Disable password and you will see all the wifi networks saved and saved again the new networks.
