So Im trying to connect to the wireless connection in my home, but on my phone when I choose to connect to my house's wireless connection it shows to the right, bars that are white and other connections are shown with green bars but they are locked. How do I connect to mine and why are the connection bars to my homes wireless connection blank?

It's white 'cos you probably don't have a security/password setup on your AP.

On your connecting problem, may I ask if you've tried setting up manually?
