Having Wifi Problems since Ios 6 (iphone 4)
Hello all,
Since installing IOS6 (now at 6.0.1.) im having WIFI problems. It is an iphone problem because im tying this on the laptop and my iphone got problems. The problems show themself in the following ways:
- Cant connect to whatsapp. I see that the iphone is 'thinking' while trying to connect but it wont.
- Cant keep a signal while using facetime. It keeps disconnecting whilst im trying to call someone trough wifi and when connected i miss parts of text and after it disconnects again.
- I cant use safari or other apps requiring WIFI/3G.
I did a reset on the iphone, i cleaned the network setting, i turned the iphone off etc etc. Ik kind of did all to prevent or fix the problems.
What could be it?
What should be my next step?
Im trying another router in a week, but never had any problems before the update to 6...
Yours Faithfully,
Fissa.
If you have control of the router you should restart it. Unplug the power, unplug the ethernet signal in cable, wait a few minutes, plug the power cord back in, plug the ethernet cable back in, wait for your router to stabalize itself (Could take a few minutes.)
I had similar problems with my iPhone 4S when upgrading to iOS 6.0. Updating further to 6.0.1 seemed to help me. The other thing I discovered was that I needed to set proxy to Auto. Before I did this on the wifi net at work I had to really fight with my phone, i.e. all the things you mentioned in your post, just to connect. But when I went to Auto it made a huge difference and I can not auto connect again just by coming within range of the network.

iPad mini with retina still having wifi problems with iOS 8.0.2 - slow or none. Resetting temporarily fixes problem it very annoying. Please fix Apple! Not up to scratch.
I Have followed these steps, and tried others, such as resetting all my network settings. At best these only temporarily fix the problem - wifi still becomes slow or stops. I have other Apple devices connecting fine to my airport express. why is my iPad mini not working? Is it related to the fact it is 3G and I don't have a sim card installed? It is the current top of the range model with iOS 8.0.2. I paid over the odds for the best, and it is almost completely redundant. Apple - I'm losing faith. You need to keep the public better informed and fix this problem fast, otherwise I will leave you for good.

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.
Try This - Renew IP Address:
• 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

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

Hi,
My Iphone 4S having wifi problem. I also noticed that the USB is not longer recongnized by my laptop anymore.
I tried to upgrade my IOS6 into 7 hopefully it work...
Somehow, all data (contacts, sms, photo and etc) were gone after I did that.
Since my USB and wifi is not function, is there anyway to retrieve my lost contacts?
For Icloud, is the data retrieve via the phone sim? Phone mac ID? Apple ID? or everything?Did you backup your iPhone 4S before to upgrade? If you did, you may recover your contacts from it.
iOS: How to back up and restore your content.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Or you should use an iPhone recovery software to get your lost contacts back. Please follow the blog's tips to have a try.
For iCloud, it does not retrieve the phone sim data. It can only restore your backup data. And, if you want to find your Apple ID, you should read this:

Hi everyone,I'm having a problem with my iPhone 5 it's wifi doesn't seem to work.it started yesterday afternoon.anyone know what happened?? I'm using 6.0.2
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If that doesn't correct the problem Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. -

I am having a problem syncing my Iphone 4 to Itunes, how can I fix this problem?
Is it just your home WiFi, or all WiFi? If it is just your home network start by rebooting your router. Turn it off or unplug its power for 15 seconds or so.

What are you talking about? What "chip" cannot be changed, and what does that have to do with WiFi?
Please explain the problem you're having and any error messages you're getting. -

Wifi problems since 10.5.8 Update. Even after Snow Leopard Upgrade.
Wifi problems since 10.5.8 Update. Even after Snow Leopard Upgrade.
Is there any way to use a 10.5.7 wireless .kext files on Snow Leopard? And where can I find the files?Ok, I have the fix!! After several frustrating days it finally just works.
The process:
Upgrade your Macs to 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
Powercycle your modem AND time capsule / airport TWICE
Reset your time capsule with a pin or paperclip on the back
Follow the prompts to setup your time capsule / airport access
-- On your Macs
Go to System Preferences > Network > Airport > Advanced > TCP/IP
Click "Renew DHCP Lease" then click "Ok"
Click Apply
Turn off Airport
Turn Airport on
IT WORKS!!!
One of the magical people at tech support walked me through it earlier today. The whole process took about 1.5 hrs because Show Leopard takes about an hour to install on one machine.
Hope this helps-
Joshua
