Why won't my iMessage turn on on my new iPhone 5C?

I had just bought this phone two days ago and I have tried multiple times to turn on the iMessage. Everytime its says it was unsuccessful and to try again. So I do. Nothing. I have tried the whole resetting the network settings and then try. Still nothing. Any advoce or ideas on helping me?

Contact your network operator.

Maybe you should try going to settings>Messages then flip the switch that will turn off iMessage. I'm not sure if it will work, but try.

I'm 100% sure I'm inputting the correct password, and it always comes up with the same error: "Unable to join the network '[my Wi-Fi name]'" I've tried turning the phone and router off and on, but it doesn't seem to be doing the trick…
