Bug with 5.1.1 on auto wifi connection/forgot network missing

since i have updated to 5.1.1 on my 4s, the phone does not auto connect to my wi fi when im at home.
In fact its doing my head in when i use face time, put phone down and 20 mins later asks me to re connect to wifi for face time
i looked into my settings for wifi and can see the " forgot network " option as well has disappered since the update?
on my ipad 3, at top says forgot this network
heres the settings:

tried reset, its all ok on my ipad 3 so something with 4s
i think i have solved it by renaming the router, so far after 40 mins ok, but will report back

  • Wifi connecting to network

    I am not able to connect to my WiFi network via Blackberry. I go to WiFi Network>My WiFi home network> WiFi Connection Status Attempt 1 of 3 > Error message "Timed Out"
    I never get past  WiFi Connection Status Attempt 1 of 3. It just times out. 
    What's up?

    I have an old G3 and have failed to get it to connect to the wifi. Can you tell me how you got as far as you are?

  • How can I stop my Imac with Mountain Lion from draining the wifi connections? It's connected to the router by wire and the wifi on the Imac is disabled.

    Okay so about 2 weeks ago, maybe less, my mom purchased a used IMac and then upgraded to Mountain Lion. Ever since she powered on the computer I haven't had the same capabilities on my PC laptop as I used to. Youtube takes forever for the videos to load and sometimes doesn't load at all. On skype when my friends send files it's estimated to take hours what should only take moments to download.
    Around the same time as when we got the IMac, I had also installed a laucher for a website that was required by my school in order to do my work. At first I thought that was what was causing the slow internet and I swiftly uninstalled it, but the problem still continued. Please I know there could be other reasons for the slow internet but I really want to explore this possibility. Please, I really want my internet back.
    Imploringly,
    Jessica

    Try some trouble shooting
    Step 1
    Does iMac have slow internet as well?
    Yes - Problem may be Modem/router. Proceed step 4
    No - Proceed step 2
    Step 2
    Shut down iMac.
    Does PC wifi issue still exist?
    Yes - It is not the iMac. Proceed step 3
    No - Need smarter people to help
    Step 3
    Use wired connection on PC laptop. Leave iMac Shut down
    Does PC laptop still have slow internet?
    Yes - Not a wifi problem. Maybe the PC software.
    No - Wi Fi issue. Maybe PC wifi or modem/router. Proceed step 4
    Step 4
    Turn power off on modem/router, count to ten, then turn on. Wait for connection to re establish.
    Does issue still exist?
    Yes - May be Modem/router wifi channel conflick with your neighbours wifi. Proceed step 5
    No - Just needed a reboot. Surf safe.
    Step 5
    Consult the modem/router manual for changing wireless channel.

  • Can I use logic remote with a USB cable rather than wifi connection?

    I don't have wifi in my studio. Has anyone gotten it to work with a USB cable?

    I don't see how this would be possible. The app is for an iPad, which has no support for USB. I could be wrong, though.
    You are mistaken..
    The iPad does support a USB to Mac connection.. use the Camera Connection kit for iPads 2/3 and the USB connector for iPad 4s or later...to achieve this...
    I use USB with apps like TouchOSC without issue...

  • Deploying Windows 7/8 with MDT or SCCM over a WiFi connection

    Yeah I did search on Google as well :) Seems lot of work :P
    I got some laptops with faulty ehtenet adapters and though to give try with wifi
    Anyway thinks for feedback

    A quick google on pxe wifi boot shows a ton of problems.
    You could possibly kick it off with a USB stick, but you'd still have the ssid and password to contend with.
    If you got to that point, it would be like watching a lake freeze.
    USB-Ethernet dongle would be a better idea.

  • Traveling with the zeen/finding a new WiFi connection somewhere away from home

    Do I have to be near my printer (within my wireless signal) to use the Zeen?  I will be traveling and I cannot find out where or how to get the zeen to find and lock into another WiFi signal away from my home. I went to a place that has a locked wireless signal and went to a place (library) that should have had an open signal. I could not figure out how or where to enter the code for the house with the locked wireless. 
    Help is so appreciated. I so want to take the zeen for small internet stuff while on vacation but can't if it wont work independent of the printer. The printer just can't go...it's too big for my suitcase
    ref=HPc510a, removable zeen
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi imtad,
    You can take the Zeen, all you have to do is from the home screen:
    Go to the menu button (the four little lines by the home icon).
    Go to settings.
    Go to wireless.
    Select the network you wish to connect to at the bottom of the screen.
    If a password is required, you will be prompted to enter it.
    At the top of the wireless menu, under Zeen Wi-Fi, it should say 'Connected' if all is successful.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • Do they have plans to fix the bugs with Yosemite.  I keep losing internet connection on my Mac Book

    Ever since i installed Yosemite on my Mac Book pro i keep losing internet connection.  Should I go back to mavericks because I just hate this Yosemite or do they plan to fix the bugs soon?  I did a complete clean install and I am still having problems.  I see a lot of complicated solutions and I am not that tech savvy to go into my settings.  Thanks

    All software has bugs. The first release (which you have) will be the worst.
    Many advocate not upgrading to a new operating system until it's been out for 3 months or longer. In the Windows world many recommend not upgrading until a full year has passed.
    So yes, most / some bugs and glitches will get fixed over time.   If you wish to reduce your difficulties in the future wait a while before installing ANY new OS.
    I suggest you post specific details on your Internet problems. How are you connected etc.

  • Repeated loss wifi connection, although network st...

    I have a home hub 2.0, over the last 2-3 months I need to reset the hub 4-6 times a day at least. Suddenly while using the wifi my device(s) disconnect despite the network still being visible. When I try to reconnect my PC, Mac, iPhone and ipad all tell me connection isn't possible. No warning lights on home hub. I have changed the channel once but this doesn't seem to have helped.
    Also is it worth upgrading to the new home hub (no infinity in my area) even if I can sort this issue out, is it that much better? Thanks

    there are known problems with the HH2  http://forumhelp.dyndns.info/hardware/hh2/hh2_issues.html
    you could try a factory reset using recessed button on back and holding till lights flash but if that does not solve it then phone CS and complain and ask for new hub  as long as still in contract then replacement should be free
    multiple resets will cause your noise margin to increase with your conenction speed decreasing resulting in lower profile and lower download speed

  • Wifi connection issue with mini Ipad

    Hi,
    Problem with the new mini ipad.  wifi connection is fine but when accesssing online streaming TV sites, it is constantly disconnect itself and have to reconnect to the site before I coujld stream it again.
    I have other devices connected to the same router fine without any issue.
    Ipad works fine with the same site and connection
    laptops work fine.
    iphones work fine
    only the mini ipad is not.
    took to Genius bar, nothing much was done.  Called support line, waited hrs for someone to tell me to make apt with Genius bar.
    This has becoming very annoying and disappoiting with Apple products since Steve J is gone.
    any help is greatly appreciate it.
    Regards,

    Try #5.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • E71 wifi connection works in browser, but not with...

    I need help badly.
    On my Nokia E71 I can easily connect to a wireless network and browse the web from the browser. But when I try to read my Gmail from the mail client on the phone I get an error message "Unable to connect to e-mail server". The settings are correct since if I switch to GPRS/3G connection, then the client connects to the server and downloads the messages. This is weird. The same is for VoIP and Fring and Nimbuzz, they all work with GPRS/3G but they don't when I choose wi-fi.
    What's more weird is that other people in the building use their person handhelds for the above purposes. The IT guy administering the network assures me no ports are blocked and that's obvious, since people use Skype and check their emails through the same wi-fi spots in the building. I fee l am missing something easy to solve, but I can't get through. Please help!

    Hello mgoksoy,
    Thank you for your reply. The problem is not with wifi connectivity option but inability to connect to wifi. For instance, if I run Nimbuzz, the settings are set to request from me each time I start it which connection to use - gprs or wifi. I choose GPRS it works alright, I choose wifi it does not connect and gives me "socket connection failed!" error. I get the same error in other wifi networks, so this is not about one specific wireless network. The same is with other applications, when I choose wifi connection it simply does not connect, like to gmail via nokia email client, I get a "unable to connect to e-mail server" error, whereas if I connect with GPRS, it works fine. And one more important, I can connect to all wifi's and browse the web via browser. But it's just the applications that won't connect and I was thinking if there was a setting in my E71 that need to be adjusted to allow applications wifi connections.

    This subject has been talked/written about a lot, after Lion was introduced. A solution from Apple has not yet been published, everybody is waiting.

  • New MBP wifi connectivity issues

    Recently bought a new MBP about 2-3 months ago and I've noticed almost the entire time I've had it I have always had issues with the wifi constantly timing itself out. I know for a fact that this is not related to my router or ISP as I have other computers on the same network that don't run into these issues. This computer has also been tested with the same results on other wifi connections. I am currently using OS X 10.8.2 on a 15in, mid 2012 model. This issue is very frustrating. I notice this issue during everything I do from Online computer games (WoW) where the connection will just drop to basic web page browsing such as navagating to this page which was a task in itself. I constantly have to turn the wifi off and back on again to refresh the connection and to load web pages.

    Same problem, no solution yet!
