Just got a Nokia Lumia 930 phone and it wont connect to home wi-fi although it is fine with other wi-fi's.Googling the prob. someone says that it could be the router which is a Thompson TG585 v 8. Any solutions to this please.All other tablets, phones and laptops connect fine and this phone connects fine to other wi-fi's.
