3.12 Bug with WiFi and non broadcast SSID?
I seem to have a bug. I can reliably replicate this on my phone and after talking to others, they mention the same issues.
Setup:
WiFi that does not broadcast its SSID and is protected (could be any protection, mine happens to use WPA Enterprise)
How to replicate:
-> Add the new network, set the network name (ssid), username, password, JOIN.
-> You are joined to the network.
-> Do something that verifies you're on the WiFi network (e.g. visit http://hostip.info in the browser)
-> Set phone down, or sleep it.
-> Wait a few seconds... wake phone.
-> It should re-connect, but won't. It has forgotten the network connection was ever there.
Describing this to others, they say they had to turn on ssid broadcast... this is not an option for me since it's a work network, and it's their security configuration to not broadcast the ssid.
Any help or can we get this confirmed as a bug and get it tracked?
Thanks...

Broadcast and non-broadcast SSID issues with iPhones and iPads
We have a CIsco wireless infrastructure configured with a public broadcasted ssid and a private non-broadcast ssid that we are experiencing issues with the iPads and iPhones. The iPad or iPhone will switch between both ssids if defined but keep the original IP address when it switches to the non-broadcast ssid making it unusable. It shouldn't be switching at all technically. If the non-broadcast ssid is defined only on the iPhone or iPad, the broadcast ssid pops up and starts asking for authentication information. I have Cisco looking into this but I'm quite sure this is an Apple bug. Any other device works fine. We are currently using version 4.3.5(8L2) on the iPads and iPhones. I do know that if we broadcast both SSIDS, the issue goes away, but I don't want to do that. Although it doesn't really add any more security, it just isn't advertised, so most people won't see it and avoids a lot of questions. Hopefully there's a simple solution.
Any ideas apple guys?
Also how does one open an actual trouble ticket with apple?Did you solve this? Settings\Wifi\Askto join networks - OFF

Windows 7 and Non Broadcasting SSID
As a part of our wireless security setup, we routinely uncheck the box to enable the broadcasting of the SSID in question. We are starting the migration to Windows 7 firmwide and have begun to notice a significant delay in the amount of time that Windows 7 is taking to acquire the SSID when it starts up.
Would like to see how others are handling this. Would prefer not to enable broadcasting of the SSID if at all possible. I know it isnt a good security option but I would like to think it makes it a little harder for someone at least of script kiddy status to get onto the wireless. We are using WPA2 enterprise which required an AD account to get onto wireless so I have a little more in place than just a static passphrase.Here is the reponse I received from Toshiba Support on this problem -
We are in the process of certifying this driver. As far as the Intel drivers go we do not change and aspect other then the packaging to support from a Toshiba prospective is not really a issue. This problem has been documented from a couple of different manufacturers and we do plan on releasing once it goes through our certification process.
I can tell you that the cert process was slowed down last week due to a issue with a Microsoft KB2393802 that appears to be interacting with the Intel Graphic driver and causing blue screens. Microsoft has since pulled this KB and will re-release but the number of reports has got engineering tied up in the short term. We were planning and having this driver released are the 1st of this month but now certification has been pushed back to the 15th.
Continuing to work with the other Toshiba laptops that we use to confirm the problem/solution on them as well.

Is my iPhone 4 greyed out wifi and non working bluetooth software or hardware... seems that the forums are full of this issue with no consistent or official answer. is it all coincidence that so many are having the problem? Please help... I have scoured the net trying everything the last few days.
Please correct your porfile: iPhone 4 do not have IOS 6.1.4.
The usual troubleshooting steps are, also remember to test it after every step:
1. Restart
2. Reset
3. Restore from backup
4. Restore as new.
If no joy, make an Appointment with the Apple genius and have them evaluate -
I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone from this ipad. Everytime I try to send a message to a person that does not have an Apple product ( Iphone or Ipad ) it comes up saying contact is not registered for iMessage and wont send it. I can only send them a message from my iPhone 4 instead. Do I have to install a new App from the App store to send these non iMessage cell users a message?

I have an ipad2 with wifi and 3G. My wife and I are traveling in France (Nice) then into Italy. We are unable to purchase a data plan because our Verizon IPad will not accept a sim chip...we are told. An Apple store employee here said this model is good only in the US. The iPads here take a sim card. We were advised by an Apple Store Employee at home that this model would work in Europe and that we could buy our service here. That does not seem to be the case. We have been told that we must invest in a modem at 200.00€ and then purchase a separate service plan for each country. We can use the free wifi wherever it is available but we cannot connect to the outside world when out of range. Is there anything else we can do?
Thanks, JohnUnfortunately, no other solution is available.
Hope this helps -

Can I get an Ipad with wifi and cellular but no contract with a carrier in the US? I want to use it overseas in Africa with a local SIM card and use the cellular signal for all my internet.
Yes you can. All Ipad's are unlocked and can be used any where in the world. Buy the AT&T version which is GSM in other countries

Dear Friends...... I have an ipad 2 32gb with wifi and 3g enabled sim..... i bought it second hand .... and now if am going to download any games it is showing me an email id and asking for its password... please guide me how can i change this setting to my email id and password
Tap on the id in Settings > Store and log out of it and then login with your id. Any content already on the iPad will be tied to the previous owner's id and it can't be copied or transferred to your id - so it's probably best to do restore the iPad back to factory defaults and start as from new with it : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Contents And Settings

This support document http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4451 relates to the 3194 error. Generally this error has to do with trying to install an iOS that is not the most current. Maybe you tried to jailbreak the phone, or downgrade iOS? Any of this apply to you?

Problem With WIFI and Bluetooth
HI Im Vikram
Recently i upgraded to IOS 8.1 so problem started with WIFI and Bluetooth . When i was in IOS 7.1.2 everything was fine with my device. so what should i do now ?? Is there any possibility to downgrade to IOS 7.1.2 ??Hi Rainxl,
Unfortunately the BIOS is unable to be resorted to back it up, as the issue persists. I suggest contacting our Technical Support Team for all the information required and to get the details of the nearest Authorized Service Center to get the issue analyzed.
Click here to open a link where you can select the country and get the exact contact support number. I’m sure they will be a great help.
Do post us back for further queries.
