IPhone 4 Doesn't Detect ANY wifi networks at all

I just got my iphone 4 a couple of days back (Finally) and to my dismay, it failed to detect a single wifi network.
After hours of throwing it around at home, it finally picked up my wifi network (although there are about 10 others which it didn't display).
Thats the only network its been able to detect, I'm currently elsewhere and I would like to use it's wifi.
My step-brother got his iphone 4 the exact same time as me from the exact same retailer and he has had no problems at all. Any help?

My ipad 2 does that same thing but it hasent connected for 4 days.

  • My iphone 4s is no longer detecting wifi since the ISO8 updates came out. I've restarted, rest the networks, reset the phone back to factory settings, and even tried the freezer trick. It is STILL not detecting ANY wifi networks. HELP!!!

    My iphone 4s is no longer detecting wifi since the IOS8 updates came out. I've restarted, rest the networks, reset the phone back to factory settings, and even tried the freezer trick. It is STILL not detecting ANY wifi networks. HELP!!! I cannot afford to go over my data and I use wifi at home and work... I believe the updates have caused the issue, because it was working fine before the second update released (I hadn't put the first one one until I noticed it had stopped working, and by then the second IOS8 version had came out). They need to do a third update to fix this issue.

    If it's grayed out:
    Reset Network Settings - if that doesn't fix it, then Backup and Restore AS A NEW DEVICE.
    If it's still grayed out, unfortunately that means your Wi-Fi antenna quit, and it needs service.

  • Iphone 4s was unable to detect any wifi networks and was told to pay £159 to get the entire phone replaced, should i do it?

    My iphone 4s does not detect any wifi networks but the apple genius said that the wifi signal seems to be fine but it just is not detecting any wifi networks and because I cannot find my receipt for the phone and the apple store only dates back purchases up to 18months ago, is there a way i can obtain my receipt?

    If your warranty is up, the replaced iPhone will have a 90 day warranty.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
    If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service Fee listed below.
    Please note Out-of-Warranty Repair Service fees from your carrier may be different than those listed below.
    iPhone Model
    Out-of-Warranty Service
    iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c,
    iPhone 5
    £ 216.44
    iPhone 4s
    £ 166.44
    iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
    iPhone 3G
    £ 126.44
    The Out-of-Warranty Service Fee includes a £ 7.44 shipping fee, which applies only if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in British pound sterling and include VAT. iPhone Out-of-Warranty Service may also be available from your wireless carrier. Pricing may vary.
    When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorisation for the maximum service fee listed above. This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
    Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare product coverage, whichever is longer. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.

  • My iphone wifi problem wont detect any wifi networks and wont detect any bluetooth networks.

    my iphone wifi problem wont detect any wifi networks and
    wont detect any bluetooth networks.

    https://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/case.faces?caseId=%7Bb62e0460-4 d48-11e3-f27b-000000000000%7D from the Garmin Support site.  The iPhone 4 is not compatible because it does not support the low energy bluetooth transfer that the iPhone 4s and later do.
    It should connect properly with your iPad mini, but it requires an App.  Also mentioned on Garmins' site.

  • Ipad2 is no longer detecting ANY wifi networks.

    Hi, my 9 month old ipad 2 no longer detects ANY wifi networks. Was always logged on to our own home router and in settings was always able to 'see' neighbours wifi - now nothing shows.Is this a hardware problem?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • After I connect with my iPhone (3GS 5.0.1) to any Ad-hoc wireless Network then walk away out of the reach of my wifi network, my iPhone can't find any wifi Network afterwards, only by turning off the iPhone completely and turning on again.

    After I connect my iPhone (3GS 5.0.1) to any Ad-hoc wireless Network then walk away out of the reach of my wifi network, my iPhone can't find any wifi Network afterwards, only by turning off the iPhone completely and turning on again.
    switching off wifi and on again or going into airplane mode did't help!
    This problem happens only with ad-hoc wifi networks not with normal ones.
    (Ad-Hoc network was created on XP Computer)

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Sorry, but the 169.x.x.x IP address is internally generated by the iPod (and iPhone) and indicates that a network has been detected but no IP address has been issued. Your friends iPhone was not connected to your ad hoc network either - it connected to the internet through the 3G network.
    You should read through the Vista help screens on ad hoc networking for some insight how this works. You should be able to get some ideas there.
    In the mean time, $40 or less will buy you a very capable wireless router with four Ethernet ports and will simplify your network tremendously. Having used Windows ICS for a long time, the addition of a router and a real network simplified things so much.

  • Today my Iphone  unable to see any wifi network

    Hello
    Today my Iphone  unable to see any wifi network.
    I tried to solve the problem in several ways.
    1. reset neteaork definitions.  -> did not solve the problem
    2. reset location and privecy  -> did not solve the problem.
    3. reset all definitions            ->  did not solve the problem.
    Doses any one has any idea that can help?
    Thakns
    Moti

    The only other option I can think of is to try a Reset All Settings reset.  You won't lose anything, but your phone's settings will ALL be set back to factory default. 
    If this doesn't work you could try to do a restore through iTunes and set your phone up as new.  If that doesn't work, you may have a hardware problem and will need to take the phone in to an Apple store to have it checked out.

  • IPhone 3G cant detect any WiFi since updated to 3.0 OS

    Hi, my iPhone 3G cant detect any wifi. Reset Network - DONE, Restore Firmware - DONE. Its happen since I updated my firmware to 3.0. Please do guide me. Thanks. Rgds from Malaysia.

    It took me days to find it...
    So, let's go:
    My iPhone does not connect to any WLAN/WIFI networks at all - just some days after updating it to 3.0. Now what to do?
    1. Change your WLAN-/WIFI-station to non secured (no password)
    2. Try to connect your iPhone - most probably it won't connect
    3. Change airplane mode to "On" and wait 10 sec
    4. Change airplane mode to "Off" and wait 10 sec
    5. Change airplane mode to "On" and wait 10 sec
    6. Change WIFI to "Off" and wait 10 sec
    7. Change WIFI to "On" and wait 10 sec
    8. Try to connect - most probably it will connect!
    9. Now change your WLAN-/WIFI-station to secured 128-Bit-WEP and give it a password
    10. Change WIFI to "Off" and wait 10 sec
    7. Change WIFI to "On" and wait 10 sec
    8. Try to connect with your new password - most probably it will connect again!
    In my case it now even connects easily to all the other networks again now!

  • My iphone can't see any wifi networks

    my iphone can't see any wifi networks ... i tried to reset network setting and reset all setting and update the ios system but no way

    I, too, fear it might be a hardware problem . I removed all security from my router but still no networks appear in the list nor can I connect directly by typing in the SSID. Tried two routers: Apple Airport Extreme and a Linksys something-er-other provided by Bell.
    I will give HP a call tomorrow and see if they can sort this out.
    Thank you for your help/advice!
    Edit: almost certain it's a hardware problem: I clicked on the Help button while on that "Scanning for networks" dialog during initial setup and as one of the "helpful" suggestions, it said my Mac address was 00:00:00:etc.

  • IMAC can not see any wifi networks at all?

    IMAC can not find any wifi network at all. A few days ago the Imac suddenly had no wifi and on turning the WIFI on and off it became apparent that when it scans for wifi it can see no wifi networks at all. I have several other computers and they all see the wifi networks fine. I assume it is a hardware issue but the hardware test I preformed comes up with no errors. Anyone got any ideas?

  • My iphone 4s won't detect any wifi networks.

    Hi
    My iPhone 4s won't detect any wireless networks.  It was working fine until last night when the connection dropped int he middle of me watching a programme.  At first I thought it was our router, but I reset that about 5 times, and all other devices are working fine on it.  The phone won't detect any other networks either - if I ask to join a network it comes up with the message "could not scan for wireless networks".  I have tried resetting the network settings as suggested on the support page, but it hasn't worked.  Can anybody help?  Thank you.

    If no change after resetting network settings on the iPhone, try restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup.
    If no change after that, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

  • Apple TV 2G can't detect any wifi network. Any solution to this? I would rather not use a cable due the distance to my modem is too far... thanks

    My 2G ATv recently can't detect any wifi connection... Tried restoring and updating but no joy... anyone has a solution to this? I would rather not use a cable.

    Your AppleTV should not be looking for any wifi, It should be looking for your wifi. What kind of wifi router do you have and how far is it from your AppleTV?

  • My iphone4 cannot detect any wifi networks.. Please help me.... :(, My iphone4 cannot detect any wifi networks.. Please help me.... :(

    I live in Greece and a few days ago I received the iphone 4 from a friend in the UK. Great B'day present don't you think? Though it accepts my Greek sim card and 3G seems to work fine, it does not detect any wi-fi networks including my home one. Please help me, what do I do with such a beautiful phone if I am not connected to the internet? 3G is expensive here and I need to start using this beauty ASAP!! Thank you in advance.

    i have encountered the same problem and fixed .

  • IPhone can't find any wifi networks

    I have an original iPhone. It originally ran on wifi networks and Edge, but for a while it has only worked on Edge. When I look under settings - Wi-Fi it says "Not Connected" and lists no networks. My MacBook is connected wirelessly via an AirPort and the wireless info on it lists at least 5 active networks in the area. I have tried toggling between Airplane Mode and not, turning off everything (including cable modem and AirPort) and then resetting network settings, resetting all settings, and erasing all content and settings. I have also tried "Other" under Wi-Fi Networks, but it can't find my home network.
    Is there just something wrong with the device?

    I have the same problem you did. Was your phone still under warranty or covered under Apple Care? My phone isn't under warranty anymore, so I'm just hoping that I'm not out of luck.
