Huawei: Delete Saved Wi-Fi Networks

If your Huawei phone keeps jumping onto an old guest network instead of your home Wi-Fi, a leftover saved connection is usually to blame. EMUI remembers every network you ever joined, including outdated passwords and networks you no longer use. Removing the wrong ones fixes auto-connect issues and frees up the list for a fresh setup.

Delete Saved Wi-Fi Networks auf Huawei

EMUI stores every Wi-Fi network your Huawei phone has ever joined, along with its password. This list grows over time and can cause your phone to auto-connect to a network you no longer want, such as an old guest hotspot or a neighbor's router with a stronger signal than your home network.

Deleting a saved network forces your phone to forget its password and connection settings. The next time you're in range, you have to enter the password again. This is the right fix when auto-connect keeps choosing the wrong network or when you're troubleshooting a Wi-Fi network that changed its password.

To remove a network, go to Open the settingsTap on Wi-FiOpen the menuOpen the settingsTap on Saved networksTap on a NetworkConfirm with Forget.

This only removes the stored credentials on your device. It does not change anything on the router itself, so other devices connected to that network are not affected.

If your phone won't connect to Wi-Fi at all, check the router first before deleting saved networks, since a weak signal or a router restart is often the actual cause.

Frequently asked questions

No. Removing a network under Saved networks only deletes the stored password on your Huawei phone. The router and every other connected device stay untouched.
