Can't connect to wifi after IOS update. Do you know a solution?

Loaded the new update and now it is sporatic connections with the wi fi. I have unplugged the router and all that, still no luck. It will work normally very briefly, but only briefly after I unplug the router, etc.
Do any of you have a solution to fix this?
Thank you!

Additional things to try.
Try this first. 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.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
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
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

IPhone 4s can't connect to wifi after iOs 8.1.1

So yesterday I updated my iPhone 4s to iOs 8.1.1 and now it seems like it doesn't connect to wifi anymore. It shows the wifi-icon on the system tray, and when I go into settings/Wifi/*Network* it shows all the correct data. I already tested it on 3 different networks, and all the same problem. I just drains my cellular instead :/
I already tried hard reset and network settings reset

I have iphone 4s with upgrad to 8.1.1, coudn't connect to App Store. Each time I put password in utilities screen it would disappear.
I don't know which part worked but I cleared the safari history and cookies and enable location and it worked.

Can't connect to WiFi after OS update and reboot of Playbook

Phoned RIM Support, and was advised it is a known problem, and our best people are working on it. Not sure how they will communicate fix to a device that may be corrupted.

I've been having the same problem for the past couple of weeks after an OS update. I had previously tried rebooting my router but I mustn't have turned it off long enough because I tried it again today and it seems to have solved the problem.

The Holy Mecha of Wifi
Turn router off then on Try turning your wireless router off then back on.
Change or turn off wireless security You may want to try toggling the settings on your wireless router, switching from WPA to WEP or vice versa, or, as a last resort, turning wireless security off altogether. For AirPort routers, this can be accomplished with the AirPort Admin Utility. For other routers, this can usually be accomplished by accessing the router’s configuration page — open a browser and enter the address 192.168.1.1.
Reset network settings on iPad. On your iPad, open Settings, then navigate to “General” in the left-hand pane. Scroll down and tap Reset, then select “Reset Network Settings.” This will delete any stored WiFi passwords and other information, but may result in a more stable connection.
Adjust brightness upward. Oddly, a number of users have found that they can resolve this issue by simply adjusting the iPad’s brightness level upward and off the lowest setting. To do this, tap Settings, then select “Brightness & Wallpaper” from the left-hand pane. Slide the brightness bar upward, then wait 1-2 minutes and check for an improvement in signal strength. Speculation holds that a power delivery issue associated with the screen brightness affects Wi-Fi.
Change thresholds in router settings. Access your routers configuration screen (for most routers, open a browser and enter the address 192.168.1.1), then change the fragmentation threshold and the CTS/RTS threshold as described here. Some users have found success with the settings Fragmentation= 2048, RTS = 512.
Change 802.11 spec on router. Try changing your router’s wireless spec mode from B, G and N to G only or vice versa. For AirPort routers, this can be accomplished with the AirPort Admin Utility. For other routers, this can usually be accomplished by accessing the router’s configuration page — open a browser and enter the address 192.168.1.1.
Switch routers. Although a far-from-ideal solution, some users have found success with switching to a different wireless router.
Turn off “Ask to Join Networks.” To do so, tap Settings on your iPad, then select “Wi-Fi” from the left-hand pane. Slide “Ask to Join Networks” to off. Speculation holds that leaving this option on causes the iPad to constantly seek networks, resulting in some type of interference with the network to which it is connected.
Forget network then rejoin. Tap Settings on your iPad, then select Wi-Fi from the left-hand pane. Choose the network with which you are experiencing difficulty, then select “Forget this network.” Go back to the previous screen and rejoin the network.
Turn off Bluetooth. Some users report that, perhaps due to interference issues, turning off Bluetooth can boost Wi-Fi signal strength. To do so, tap Settings then tap General in the left-hand pane. Tap Bluetooth in the right-hand pane, then slide to off.

IPad fails to connect to WiFi after OTA update to iOS 6

After the OTA update to iOS 6 my new iPad fails to connect to my WiFi network at home. My LANCOM router reports the following issue:

Interface: WLAN-1
Ereignis: Rejected Association from WLAN station xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx []: ()

It has worked flawlessly in the past with iOS 5 on my new iPad and iPhone 4. At the moment I hestitate to update my iPhone too.
Anyone with the same issue or an idea how to fix it?
Thanks in advance, greetings from Stuttgart (Germany),

Can't connect to wifi after bootcamp

ICan't connect to wifi after bootcamp.
I install windows 7 on my MacBook Pro retina 15.
Windows is staring up but I can't connect to network.
It says I need a driver (network driver) how do I get it?
But when I run the Mac with Macintosh HD all work normal.

Did you follow the Bootcamp instructions and download and install the Windows Support software?

Can no longer connect to WiFi after IOS 7 update

I own a small hotel. After updating to the new IOS, no one can connect to the WiFi network on their iPads or iPhones.
Help!

Too little info here to work with however ...
1. Go to SETTINGS on your iphone, then to WI-FI
2. Can you see any networks listed? If not, then you have a problem with your Wireless Router. Reset it and see if it appears.
3. If you can see the wireless network, try to connect to it manually. If this works, then off you go. If not, then you need to tell me what wireless router it is before we can go much further. Also, are any other devices connecting successfully (ie: pre-iOS 7 handsets, Macs or PCs)?

Can't Connect to WiFi After Updating To 2.2

Hey guys,
I just updated my software to 2.2, and now all of a sudden i can't connect to my wireless router at home. I can easily connect to it using my phone, but can't using my ipod. I've searched around a bit, and still can't find a solution.
When i go to settings, WiFi Networks, then i click on the blue arrow next to my router name, the only thing that is entered is my i.p address, and subnet mask. The router and DNS fields are blank. The i.p address number that was automatically entered into it is 169.254.46.155, and the subnet mask is 255.255.0.0
I have tried resetting the network settings, and turning my D-Link DI-524 Router on and off, but still no luck. In Safari i get the message "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet" even though the wifi logo is active on the top, and it has a full strength bar of 3 bars.
Any help guys? It's really starting to **** me off. Is it a problem with 2.2 in general? My router doesn't have a WEP key by the way. I chose not to give it a password.
Cheers for the help.

Thanks for your offer to help.
I have wasted considerably more time than Mike even - let's say 24 hours spread over 4 weeks trying to get a Touch to connect to my wifi network. For the first two weeks, the Touch saw my network but refused to connect. It had a self-assigned IP 169 address. I did all the recommendations and suggestions - renewed the DHCP lease (20 times?), reset the network settings (50 times?), restored the entire Touch to factory settings (twice), entered and reentered and double double double checked the passwords and the case sensitivity and so on (more times than it is polite to tell you), and it still wouldn't connect.
Then, last week, it stopped even seeing my network. I suppose the benefit of that is that at least no-one can now advise me to renew the lease or fix the 169 IP - I can't even see the bxxxxy lease or IP setting any more! The error message is "could not find the network xxxx".
So, please do point me in the right direction - I'll be eternally grateful. I've just totally reset the Touch (again) to out of the box factory settings - and it doesn't see the network transmitted from an Apple Time Capsule one foot away from it.
The home network was totally reset yesterday afternoon, so I do know what the settings are.

IPad 2 wont stay connected to wifi after iOS 6 update

Since my latest update a few weeks ago, my ipad wont stay connected to wifi networks. Has anyone found a solution to this? Why would the latest update have impacted this function?

I tried the suggestion, from another post, to reset the network settings and that did not work.

2007 security update can't connect with wifi after sleep

After applying the 2007-001 security update I could no longer get to the any web pages even though internet connect showed I had a good connection. After checking my network settings I noticed that my Power book had a self applied IP address. I deleted the internet .plist files in my user/library/preferences folder and rebooted. Then my network settings showed a valid ip address. After putting the Power book to sleep for a while. I had to go through the whole routine again. Has anyone found a fix for this?

Hello Peter
Albeit this is a late reply, I have found that if I disconnect from
the net via the Airport symbol on the Finder's task bar that, works for me.
It is odd since this issue is most prevalent with 10.4.8 & intel in particular.
However I have experienced it on my powerbook running 10.4.8.
My Flat panel runs os 10.3.9 but is connected via ethernet & that does not have this issue.
Make sure your Router/Modem is updated on it's firmware.
I don't know how you connect, however try DNS Server #'s if you do not have those entered in your, DNS server field, TCP/IP tab, Network, In System pref.
Look for your ISP's server # here
FYI, for many ppl.in the States, the Verizon numbers work well.
Verizon (Level3) - these are not restricted to Verizon customers
4.2.2.1
4.2.2.2
Of course the DNS maybe filled all ready & have nothing to do with
your problem, thought I would add it.
Hope this helps some, if you look at your post.

Still can't connect to WiFi on iOS 6 iPhone 4S?

I have read all the workarounds for convincing iPhone 4S updated to iOS 6 to connect to my wireless network and it still will not connect. I've used it in other places with no issues (networks with no security) but I can't connect to my home wireless network (Airport Extreme). My other devices connect fine and there were no issues before upgrading but I have tried restarting the Airport anyway and changing the security settings and still nothing. Half the time when I go into WiFi settings on the phone, the network doesn't even show up in the list. Whenever it does, I try to connect and either get "Cannot connect to network," or I am asked for the password and I enter it and I get the same error message. I've tried resetting my network settings and doing a soft reset of the phone but nothing seems to help. I also tried removing security on the wireless network completely and it still can't find the network or connect to it.
Has anyone found a workaround for this short of reseting/restoring the phone or a problem with the Airport Extreme that might be causing the issue?

Update: I tried restoring the Airport Extreme to factory settings and used a new network name. It connects at first, but then loses the connection after a minute or two and the network disappears from the list...infuriating.

Can't connect to wifi after connecting to Starbucks wifi

I know it sounds awkward that I can't connect to any wifi network after I connected to Starbuck's at&t wifi network, but that is the last time I've been able to. I'm not sure if it's just a coincidence or if that is the reason I haven't been able to after this. I had 2.1 since day 1 and it worked always perfectly until Starbucks that one time. A few days later, I updated to 2.2 and still everything is fine except for the wifi, same issue.
Issue: Wifi is on and it just keeps showing "Choose a network..." with the icon spinning, but no networks show up. Ask to Join networks is on, but when I go to any program, it doesn't ask to join anymore. I've tried resetting network settings, turning on/off normally, doing a hard reset by holding down and not turning it off normally. I don't know what else to try. Nothing with the network router has changed, but even then I would expect it to list it at least or show all the other networks around the apartment, but none show up. My wife's phone connects to it fine. I've also tried clicking on Other... and then putting in the network name and it doesn't find anything. Something is abnormally wrong.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hmmm.....
It's worth a hard reset (press and hold the sleep/wake button and the Home button together, ignoring the 'slide to power down' message and then release them when the display blanks. Press the sleep/wake button until the logo appears and then wait for the restart which takes a little while...)
Apart from that, it may be worth clearing Safari's cache, etc..... (Settings > Safari > Clear History/Cookies/Cache)
In any event, 'Good luck'!!
If all else fails it IS possible that some WiFi hotspots are VERY hot and emit more power than is really allowable in the Standards, resulting in 'frying' your WiFi receiver (possible but unlikely). If this is the case, return your iPhone to an Apple store with the 'WiFi not working' message but don't mention Starbuck's or anyone else.....just don't use Starbuck's WiFi service ever again!
