Quick query here, hopefully one that'll pay off.
In short, a certain location that I frequent has apparently wiped their wifi servers of any foreign objects, and has stopped people from accessing their wifi network with their phones. Before such a date, access was freely avaliable providing you had the wifi password (which I did).
I've been told by a reliable source that this only applies to existing phones, so if someone new came in, or if someone purchased a new phone, they would easily be able to connect.
I'm not going to pretend how this works, but is there a way for me/us to (I suppose) reset our phones so that they would appear new to this wifi connection? Without actually resetting our phones (and thus losing lots of data).
