Apple should respond to iphone overheat wifi problem!

Now my iphone is having a problem to find any wifi,
searching all around the forum i found out that that is cause by the iphone overheat problem,
after try i noticed it is true that when in a cool environment( they even put iphone in the fridge) my iphone can sometimes find the wifi and can be connected, but it won't last long. After a while the temperature increase, the wifi problem come back again.
Not only me but many people experiencing the same wifi problem like me~ Apple should show some respond to this serious problem~!

I found that I seem to lose my AT&T connection when the iPhone overheats somewhat. Yesterday I couldn't even find any service, but turned off and everything worked well today. I think if I periodically turn the phone off and start over again, the overheating probably diminishes.

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.

Iphone 4s wifi problems disconnecting and then connecting also doesn't load.

This is a Iphone 4s. So 2 days ago, my wifi kept greying out and every time it connects again to the internet it doesn't work and it also is very slow and then suddenly it disconnects, i have tried this and it is the same for every wifi connection. I have tried the trouble shooting steps, restored my iphone, restarted it, turned it on and off and it still doesnt help. I have recently read articles about people having the same problem as me because they updated there i os, but i dont know if i have the same problem or what. I have called up apple today and they said that my phone has expried from warrenty, so i need to try the trouble shooting steps but they won't work. Also, when I click on my wifi it says "unable to connect". Anyone suggest things i should do? Thnak you

Having this same issue. Went to the Apple store and called support numerous times ... Apple will not admit there is a problem and instead convienantly found that a water damage sensor in the earplug jack was tripped. Even though they took it apart and found no water damage sensors tripped internally, they basically told me my warranty was void. Apple is avoiding the issue with the WIFI on the iPhone 4s ..... sorry

IPhone 5c wifi problems

I have an iPhone 5c and lately my wifi will not work properly it says it's connected but it does not load anything and it disconnects I've reset my router my network settings everything any advice?

If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPhone. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
First, test your iPhone on some other WiFi networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. Do not reset it. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If your iPhone does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. You could try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings to see if that corrects the problem. If not, contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPhone is bad.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

Iphone 3g - WiFi problem, upgrade possibility?

Hi guys
I recently updated my 3g to iOS4 and 4.0.1. After sometime of usage my wi-fi become really weak and by the time I lost completely signal of that. I tried everything from software side, by downgrading resetting and all of this tricks without any luck. My wifi icon inside settings is not yet gray but I expect it to become after some time. I lost completely usage of the phone because accessing network was on of the main use of the phone.
I went to genius bar in order to get it fixed but surprisingly I found out that they refused to change anything. They said that the only thing that they repair is the screen otherwise they change the phone for 269CHF. That's completely crazy because I asked also for my silent switch to be changed and they refused!!!!!
Then I though about changing the antenna on my own, so I bought a spare part from the internet which didn't improve the situation at all. I guess my wifi-bluetooth chip is broken and I am not willing to replace it..
I don't know how to complain on that. I am a mac developer since 5 years and really addicted to their products but now it's they first time that I hate this situation and how apple is handling this. I know that are posts of iphone 3g users (more than 400 replies) complaining about this and in parallel apple seems not to care at all for this.. I already submitted feedback for this.
So since my option is only to change my phone does anyone knows that instead of paying some money to get a new 3g is there any option available to exchange it with some additional cost with an 3gs or 4? I don't want to get a 3g and have the same problems after some days...!!!!!
And Apple DO SOMETHING!!!!!
Thanks

IF the problem is hardware there is a fix http://www.iphonetiquicia.com/repair-iphone-3g-wifi-oven/
Micro-fissures cause the overheating you're talking about. So before you pay for your full replacement you may as well try the fix. I did it on mine and it worked. Even runs cooler now because the reflow fixed the high resistance caused by the micro-fissures in the solder joints.

Iphone 6 wifi problems

II have a week old iPhone 6 and have had nothing but wifi problems since I got it.
FIrst off off I got my 6 from Best Buy one week ago, and they could not transfer my icloud items and settings to my new phone. So I was sent home to do this myself. After a few hours I finally got my iCloud back up to go onto my new iPhone.
Major wifi problems. I'm about ready to take it back, since I do have 14'days to return this nightmare.
I Have a iPhone 5 , a iPod 5, ipad 2, and my husband has a iPhone 5S. None have problems with wifi except my brand new iphone 6.
I opened my wifi settings and can see it going on and off at a drop of a hat.
Dont tell me I have to update my router because I already tried this.
Another Major Issue is that annoying pop up
"Cellular Data is turned off for your photos"
you can turn on cellular data for this app in settings
I know this appears because I lose my wifi at that moment while in the middle of something. But it as well says this for
Settings, Mail ......
IF something's not fixed soon I'm dropping Apple products. I Love Apple But right
now I'm so displeased!

Dsheedy1,
Here are the steps that I would use to troubleshoot wifi problems:
1.) Reset the wifi router at home
2.) Make sure your wifi router is not using a generic name that might be doubling with your neighbor's wifi router.
3.) Instead of naming a router NETGEAR68, name it "Dsheedy1_wifi" or some other name that is not likely to be used by a neighbor's wifi router.
4.) What is the exact nature of wifi problems?
      a.) not seeing the wifi router's name in the list of routers?
      b.) not being able to sign in or get authenticated?
      c.) getting connected to router but getting dropped at random after a while?
      d.) loosing connection if farther away from router?
Steps 1-3 deals with 4a, identifying your router from other routers in your neighborhood.
If it's 4b (authentication), temporarily set your router's encryption to nothing, see if you can get connected w/o in open access mode. Then switch back to security mode.
If it's 4c or 4d, it could be that your the iphone6's wifi chip and antenna is more sensitive. To rule out interference to the antenna, do not use a phone case that has a metallic back plate which coveres up the top most and bottom most portions of the 6.
Finally, compare wifi connectivity with routers in other locations. If it can get connected to wifi in the Apple Store, or shopping mall, or restaurants, but not for your home wifi router, then it may be a matter of the wifi on the 6 not working well with your home wifi router.
I do not have a 6 yet (still on contract for my 5). After I got my 5 in late 2012, my home wifi was working ok. I did not get the wifi sensing or login problems that had happened to many posters on this forum. However, when I started to use VoIP apps like Skype to make phone calls my wifi started to falter. Since replacing a wifi router is a cheaper solution for me, I bought a new router that was on sale for $80 and had no more wifi stability problems.
My suggestion to you at this point would be to pick up an Apple wifi router. Now if your 6 can't connect to Apple's own router there would be no doubt as to what is problem (the 6). You may have gotten one with quality problem with its wifi circuitry. If I remember correctly Apple has a 30 day return policy on products such as a wifi router. So if it doesn't work out for you, it can be returned.
Best of luck to you!

IOS 7.0.3 caused my iPhone 4s wifi problem.

My wifi mac is still on, so it looks like cooling off won't work. I can't believe I considered putting my iphone into the freezer to solve a wifi problem! Any updates on this issue?

No, you didn't ask a question. You posted a rant. The word "why" does not appear anywhere in your original post. For that matter, there isn't even a question mark in your original post.
As for why chey can't help you, that's because Apple, like many international companies, operates as separate legal entities in different countries. There are financial and regulatory issues with moving stock from country to country (including service parts).
The models of the iPhone sold in the US are not available in other countries, and since Apple does not repair iPhones, they only replace them, there is no way for Apple in Europe to service your US iPhone, just as a European iPhone can not be serviced in the US.

IPhone 5 WiFi Problems (iOS 6.1.4)

I need some help. Previously, on a Belkin router, my WiFi connection was iffy but usable for online gaming most of the time. My family recently switched to Verizon Fios, and now I'm having some problems. The WiFi cuts out on me every 2-3 minutes when playing games online; and sometimes it becomes extremely slow when web browsing or other things. Recently it was telling me that my password to the router was incorrect when it clearly was not, so I had to reset my whole phone. I'm really annoyed right now, if this is apple's fault. If the security type has anything to do with it, it is WPA2, and it's connected to my mom's computer so there is not a big chance she will allow me to change it.
At my dad's house, I have virtually no issues. Not sure of the WiFi and router type, but it is not Verizon Fios. Does anyone know any way to fix this? Or should I just take my phone to an Apple Store and try to get a replacement? None of Apple's "suggestions" have helped me at all.
All advice/help is appreciated.

How do I fix my iPhone 5 wifi problems with Airport Extreme?

I have a 5th Gen Airport Extreme (AE) and an all Mac household. We have iPhones, iPads and MacBooks. Ever since I got the Extreme, my iPhone 5 will stop responding on the internet. It still shows as connected, but nothing on the internet responds. The immediate solution is to turn wifi on and off on the phone and everything immediately starts working again.
I believe it's started happening on the iPad 3 as well, but it's hard to tell if I'm just resetting it due to paranoia on unresponsive sites. The AE is set to WPA2 Personal only, and both the 2 & 5ghz radios are set to automatic. Also it's a/b/g/n (Automatic).
I've tried restarting everything multiple times, reset the AE from scratch, and done "Reset Network Settings" on the phone. Nothing has been able to fix it permanently.
The irony is that I switched to the AE after a number of cheap wifi routers that didn't keep a signal. Now I never lose the signal but it refuses to actually show evidence of routing the packets.
Any and all help is much appreciated!

I have gone through 5 iPhone 5 replacements and nothing has helped with this issue. I just keep taking it back hoping for a good replacement. I finally got the attention of a district manager because of the amount of replacements I have had. Also, don't believe the Geniuses. They tried to say I had my AE 5th Gen setup wrong when I followed Apple's recommended settings. Then when I showed them the page, they said I was showing them a fake website. It was the Apple Support page. ***?!?

IPhone 3G wifi problem... please help

Hey guys, just got an iphone 3G. Now, I had a 2nd gen ipod touch until recently and the wifi never had a problem in my house. Just got an iphone however, and it seems every 2 out of 3 times I start using the wifi on it, after a minute or two it will just lose the whole network. Even my imac will lose all wifi. It's the like the modem hates my iphone for some reason. The only thing to get it back up, is resetting the modem every time which is a pain. any ideas??
thanks

tried it mate, now the thing is, my wifi button is not grayed but it can not find the wifi signal ! sometimes it can, and then it looses the signal ! so in my opinion, there should be some solution or patch for it coz if it has a hardware issue then it stays as grayed but now it's not ! so yea waiting to have some solution for it. Thanks though really appreciated !

Is apple EVER going to fix the Wifi problem on phones AND iPads?

I keep seeing all these new updates for stuff on ios7...and yet THEY STILL HAVE NOT FIXED THE WIFI CONNECTION PROBLEM ON PHONES AND IPADS!

This is a real hardware problem triggered by the installation of iOS 7. A representative in the Apple Store in Ginza, Tokyo, admitted this to me today. The WiFi and Bluetooth chip on my iPhone 4s have been damaged either during the installation process itself, or by using the system after installation. However despite the fact that Apple Japan representative admitted that the company is at fault, they would not agree to fix or replace the phone at their cost. What terrible customer service!

IPhone 3GS WiFi problem

Hey folks. I've had issues with my WiFi for a few months now. I turn my receiver on in settings, but no networks show up.
I know for a fact there is a wireless signal (my university's res-hall signal) but it wont show up. When I was home over break I reset my router and I was still unable to connect. Unable to connect on my fraternity's signal also. I have reset my network settings to no avail.
I am running 4.2.1. Figured I'd check here first before I shell out $30 to talk to an Apple rep (Thats pretty ridiculous you need to pay for support). If it is a broken receiver, would I need to pay for a new phone?

I have the same problem on my iPhone 3S. It is disappointing that Apple will not step up and comment on this widespread problem, apparantly caused by the latest update. I am losing my confidence in Apple products.
Apple continues to ignore this customer complaint that was caused by their update.
