Make sure not to use WPA passkey/passphrase as iPhone seems to really, I mean REALLY dislike WPA guarded routers.

Check the pw on the router. Make sure it is the same with the pw you are using for the iphone. If not, try resetting the pw, and also make sure the encryption type the router is using is compatible with iphone.

60 Panasonic Viera Plasma TV does not accept my verified ASUS Router password

old plasma? what is full model name of TV?
i guess wifi fails on TV.
so is TV close to the router wrong at or 100ft away.
do all other things work on this router wifi
cell phones (standing near TV (distance matters)
or any laptops
or notebooks or pads?
test that first. if that fails the router is set up wrong
is it your router or the ISPs?

learn to diagnose WIFI , hint try more devices
on my verizon cell phone, it has wifi option
i turn off 4g saves money doing that)
an then turn on wifi (home wifi) and set that up
if that works the router is ok
if still only TV fails. the TV may be too old, no tv model told
so if TV is very old, and does not do WPA2
and your router is set to WPA2 only (like mine is now)
then it can fail at the TV only.

here in your router do this, just 3 steps.
set the SSID first,, to like rover123 (a name you now, instantaly as yours)
easy no?
next set the encrytpion to what you TV can do
if TV is WPA1 only set router to, wpa1 /2 both. dual wpa mode.
do not use WEP it is not safe.
now set you Pass-phrase (pw)
to say this,. (not this , this its lastpass created do your own)
do not use dictionary PW.
now it works, at home. just 1 example, then write it down.!!!

OR DO THIS:
connect the router with cat/5/6 cable to the TV Ethernet port assuming it has one. and bam fast easy connections
in TV you must tell it to use what ever you have now.
first. in INTERNET connects inside TV menus. smart screens.

How do I get my iPhone to recognize my new Linksys router.

passwords are case sensitive, so the problem is possibly just that you have capitals in the password and these are not specifies when entering the password into the iPhone

WHY DOESN'T MY PASSWORD ON MY COMCAST ROUTER ALLOW ME TO CONNECT MY IPHONE TO WIFI?

Try this ....when you scan via iphone for your wifi instead of inputting password...go to the right chevron ....click forget this network.....then rescan wifi....then rein put password....it should accept.if not password for router has been changed....this means you need to go to routers ip (google it) at wwww.mywifirouterlogin.net. And input the user:pass assigned for that make model.then you will see the routers assigned password as it may not be the network key that is on the back or bottom of router housing.

Iphone can't use home wifi

just confirm if the password you have for internet is correct or not.

Iphone will not accept Password in Zyxel Router

Try disabling the password temporarily to be sure you can make the connection.
When you reenable, be sure you enter that long string of letters and numbers into the iPhone as the key (and not the passphrase).

I have a pc with wifi but my iphone wont conect to wifi

Start -> Run -> type 'cmd' and press ENTER.
Enter 'ipconfig' and press ENTER.
Look for a line like:
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.1
Open your web-browser.
Enter: http://192.168.2.1
Login to the web-interface on your router
(see the router's manual for the ID/password to use for login)
and then click the 'Wireless' button.
Select a 'SSID', of your own choice.
Configure your iPhone to connect to that 'SSID'.
