Hi

Does your A5 detect your home WiFi network at all?

If it does, have you tried the "forget this network' option, shut down and restart the phone and then try to reconnect again? If so what happens?

If it doesn't is your home network working on 5GHZ or 2.4GHz?

If it is 5GHz what channel have you set in the router?

Try setting the 5GHz channel to either 36, 40, 44, or 48 and see if the A5 detects the WiFi network.

Thanks ! Changing the canal from "Auto" to 40 on my router did the trick and now the phone sees the network.
