IOS 6.1.2 wifi disabled?

What's up Apple? Fix the Wi-Fi bug that disables Wi-Fi in iOS6

Correct.
Whilst Apple has not released any official information on the issue, the general consensus is that there is a Firmware compatibility issue on some models (note: not all) of the iPhone 4S.
This occured during the jump from iOS 5 to iOS 6.
The only concrete solution is a device replacement.
Apple should be assisting with this matter.
Did you seek service at your local Genius Bar?

    4s ios 6.1.2  wifi disabled.grey.gone.what can i do?

    I've the same problem.
    I've changed 3 Iphone for this problem.
    The only solution is change the telephone and pray... This problem is caused  by the IOS update.
    My problems started in the same time with the update on IOS 6 and they are still present. I've contacted the apple support and they told me switch telephone.
    Do you have any different news?

  • Iphone 4s on iOS 7.1.2, wifi disabled when phone is locked

    Hey, So i do not have 3g connection. So whenever my iphone is locked the wifi seems to drop until i turn it back on. It never did this before now im receiving iMessages LATE, im talking 5-45 minutes late. What can i do to change this?

    More than likely that is the reason. The only way for you to receive an iMessage is if you are connected to the Internet. If your Wi-Fi is off, as it is when the phone is asleep and you have no other data connection, then messages will not be delivered until you connect to the Internet again. So if you only data connection is Wi-Fi, then you would have to have the device connected to power to maintain a constant Wi-Fi connection. If not, then the connection will go to sleep. If a person that is sending you the message has "Send as SMS" activated on their device, an iMessage failure would result in the message being sent/received as an SMS (regular text message).

    Re: ios 7.1 ipad wifi problems
    Mar 26, 2014 7:35 PM (in response to pjl1005)
    I have several IOS devices and updated each of them to Apple's release of IOS 7.1.
    Unfortunately my iPhone 4s did not update successfully. It was affected by the widely reported issue regarding WiFi being disabled permanently. After the update to IOS 7.1, wifi is no longer an accessible option on the IPhone 4s.
    After doing some online research and identifying this as a common problem, I tried some of the suggestions available online such as resetting settings and restoring from backup. None of these suggestions worked.
    I brought the iPhone 4s to the apple store at the Rideau Center in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and spoke to one of the employees. He stated that it was not an apple issue and that it was a problem with my phone that would cost $200 to resolve. He said that it was not a problem related to the ios 7.1 update and that it was a "coincidence" that it happened at the same time as the update to ios 7. 1 and was probably an issue with the wifi chip.
    It is surprising to me that applying an update recommended by apple and using the iPhone 4s in the manner in which it was designed (using wifi) would cause this basic function (wifi) to cease to function.
    Wifi is an essential part of my day to day use of this device. I am appalled that apple is denying the problem and has no resolution for it.
    If anyone else this problem, please go to your nearest apple store and let this forum know your experience in getting the issue resolved.

  • Wifi disabled

    after last iOS update (version 6.0.1), ipod touch (4th gen), any appl. update turns out to be slow until wifi disables itself.

    I had this problem with my iPhone 4S and I tied everything, even two restores.  The new iOS burned out the wifi thing.  I had to get a replacement phone from my nearest Apple store.  My phone is still in warranty, but if yours is not, you have to pay the price you bought it for.  I bought my iPhone 4S when it first came out so I would have to pay $199 for my 16GB.  If you do end up bringing it to an Apple store,  make sure your stuff is backed up to iCloud! I made the mistake of only backing it up to my computer and then when I got there, the guy advised me not to restore from the old update because of corrupt data.
    if you need a quick fix before getting it checked out, you can take it out of the case and stick it in the freezer for a couple of minutes.  As soon as the phone heats up, the wifi grays out again.
    Hope this helped!

  • Ios 7.1 = no Wifi on iPhone 4s   very low battery runtime... HELP!!!

    ios 7.1 = no Wifi on iPhone 4s + very low battery runtime... HELP!!!

    Welcome, sorry to hear your news, there are numerous threads on this issue. Try the trouble shooting on the other threads, I do not recommend sticking it in the freezer or heating with a hair dryer though,
    If it's within warranty and trouble shooting doesn't work, get it. Ack to apple ASAP and get it replaced.
    Many others are in the same position, who also have a 4s
    Good luck

  • IOS 8.1 Affects WiFi on iPad Air - can't downgrade

    Hello all,
    I just got a warranty replacement iPad Air the other day that came with iOS 7.1.2 on it - worked well, but, of course, I was pressured to update to iOS 8.1. After doing so, on a "brand new" iPad (did not restore from backup), I've noticed that all the apps I use to stream video, whether it's cable TV over WiFi (via InstaTV Pro), streaming video from my desktop (via Air Video HD), Netflix, or Amazon Prime, I've noticed a significant amount of stuttering, re-buffering, and other anomalies that didn't occur on iOS 7.x.x. This is about as pristine as an iPad can get - I guess maybe I should not do an in-place upgrade and just do a "clean/tethered install" via iTunes? I was worried of exactly this happening, after prior reports that iOS 8 messed with WiFi.
    I'm aware Apple stopped signing iOS 7, so I can't downgrade, but... what gives? Do I need to ask for another replacement iPad and just not upgrade to iOS 8? I've had similar WiFi problems on my iPhone 5s after upgrading as well - my daily routine doesn't change much, so when things that used to work flawlessly now consistently produce errors, I start to wonder.
    I'm also super-frustrated because the current vertical integration platform that Apple offers has gotten *more* buggy with the new releases of everything, not less. After the 11th version of iTunes, 5th version of iPad, and 8th major version of iOS, it's simply unacceptable.
    I'd appreciate any help you guys can offer - I'm a geek, so if I need to get my hands dirty to fix this, I'd be much obliged
    Thanks so much!

  • HT4623 I down loaded ios 7 to my wifes ipad 2  but because of the streamlined look my wife can bearly see the letters and numbers on the key board because of an eyesight problem  She had no problem with the old keyboard.  Is there a way to make the letter

      I downloaded ios 7 to my wifes ipad 2.  The only problem was, with the new system the letters and numbers on the keyboard became so streamlined that my wife had trouble seeing them because of a eye problem.  Is there a way to get the old keyboard back and if not how do you uninstall ios 7?

    I had thought this situation was solved but it just got worse. In addition to being without service for several days I am now being charged  a cancellation fee for a broadband service that BT disconnected in error. BT Vision was also terminated by BT but the set up charges are still in place. Does anyone know who the relevant Ombudsman is? I called BT from America on Friday - for an hour - while someone called Aruj sorted out why there is an order 'in progress' that I didn't initiate; why I have fees relating to a problem created by BT and why there are references to a house move that didn't take place and a BT Vision service I no longer have but didn't cancel myself. He assured me it would be rectified and my bill would be reduced by 139 pounds and we would get confirmation of this later that day. I asked him what chance there was that this would not actually happen - he said no chance at all; my new bill would be 23.50.
    There was no text message. An online chat person today told me there had been a fee reduction request which had been declined and there was nothing else he could help me with as he dealt only with broadband. But he would get BT Vision to email me. They always seem so helpful.............
    I'm sure I'm listed somewhere as 'a problem', there's no other explanation for why I get the runaround

  • Ios 6.1.2 wifi is work ??? in iPhone 4s

    anybody know iphone 4s in ios 6.1.2 wifi is greyed or work?

    Dear Apple.
    I was really happy with my iphone4s, IOS 6.0, great product amazing quality and posibilities BUT.......
    I updated from IOS 6.0 to 6.1.1. and the WIFI nightmare started.
    I waited for a new update to fix the WIFI problems and I updated my iphone 4s from 6.1.1. to 6.1.2. in order to solve these problems related with WIFI connections.
    But IOS 6.1.2. is even worst:
    - WIFI is not working at all. So I cannot download apps greater than 50MB.
    - Battery life is shorter than ever.
    - 3G goes in and out every minute.
    - When you operate the iphone4s you can realize that is hotter than before.
    These problems are unnaceptable and inconsistent with a high quality standard product.
    You can read a lot of blogs, I am not the only one.
    Please give us a solution as soon as possible.
    Best Regards

    I have an iPhone 4S WiFi disabled. I can not turn on WiFi it does not allow...
    Please help me.

    Have you tried pressing the round button and the on/off switch at the top at the same time and holding them till an Apple icon appears?  If that doesn';t work, take it back, you are still under warranty.

  • Setting iOS DNS for All WiFi Networks

    This article describes how to set the DNS for WiFi connections on iOS:
    http://techinch.com/blog/change-your-dns-settings-on-iphone-ipod-touch-and-ipad
    The problem is that it specifies DNS for an individual network
    connection, not for all connections.
    Does anyone know a way to change iOS DNS for all WiFi networks in one
    fell swoop?

    I have my ios devices DNS set via DHCP
    You'd have to move to an MDM solution if you want over the air, push profile configuration setting to the devices
    such as osx server Profie Manager. You may be able to do it with custom settings, I haven't tried it myself
    The basic wifi setting in OSX server PM only allow settings for wifi SSID password etc
    no DNS settings ip address etc. alternative MDM solutions may give you more options

    Nah... there simply is not iOS 6 Wi-Fi problem with the 4S.  I have not experienced any issues and neither has anyone else I know with iPhones.
    User's like yourself really should drop the attitude and try some basic troubleshooting.

  • IOS 6.1.1 wifi gets dissconnected every few minutes

    I updated my 4s yesterday with the new IOS and now, my wifi is getting dissconnected every few minutes. The most frustrating thing is that I have to enter the password of my home wifi everytime it gets dissconnected.

    Yes I'm having the same issue since the latest iOS update. My wifi reception has dropped substantially - 2 or even 1 "bars" in places in the home where it was full reception. It drops out repeatedly, stopping podcast downloads.
    I have both a router and a range extender and the problem exists with both of them. It also exists if I try to connect to public wifi - completely unusable...
    But also, I use bluetooth headphone a lot, and the reception for them has plummeted to the point where continually drop out even when the phone is in my shirt pocket - i.e. just 30cm from the headphones. Before the update, the reception was halfway through the house!.
    I know it wasn't the headphones causing this because I thought so and took them back for exchange under warranty, and the new ones are exactly the same.
    So both wireless reception and bluetooth transmission strength have gone down the toilet following this iOS update.
    Is Apple doing anything about this? It seems the communities are full of similar complaints...
