IPhone 4S doesn't stay connected to wifi

For the last few months my iphone drops the wifi single.  Other devices in the same
room have no problem, including my iPad.  What can I do to fix this. Mon another note,
my battery life ***** also lately.

i have a similar problem except i've a 3GS.  i took the phone to the "Genius Bar" and the "Geniuses" there did nothing more than clean out the lint that had accumulated over the past three years.
here's the link to my thread:  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3947285
I've done everything possible with the phone and my router at home (though, as you can tell from reading what i've done, anything related to my router at home is moot because th eissue persists anywhere i go...)  all i can think is that it's a OS issue some how.  I may try to wipe and install an older OS or jail break it to see what happens.
My bets are on what people have said to me though in passing:  this is Apple's way of making people want to move onto the iPhive (name trademarked by me!) due to frustrations with their iPhour or iPhthree (that doesn't work so well does it...).

  • IPad 3 and iPhone 5 will not stay connected to wifi although I am close to router and have strong signal

    iPad 3 and iPhone 5 will not stay connected to wifi although I am close to router and have strong signal. I have to keep joining the network or restarting devices or forgetting network and rejoining it.  As a side note my 1st gen iPhone which I upgraded to iPhone 5 yesterday always stayed connected!

    The steps to try would be to:
    1. Restore the iPhone to Factory.
    2. If that does not solve the problem replace the iPhone.
    If Verizon is offering to replace the iPhone for free under warranty I would go with that option.

  • My wifi button isn't working and my iPhone 6 doesn't letme connect to wifi so I have been using 4G for the last 2 days! How can I fix it ?

    OOkay so yesterday my phone kept stuffing up and blacking out so I had to keep rebooting it
    i think it did this about 5 times, the first time it did it and I turned it back on
    eeverything was fine , but then my wifi button went blue and even in settings the option to turn it on isn't available

    Try doing this:
    Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset Network Connections
    Phone will reboot, you will have to enter your WiFi Passwords again - BUT should resolve the problem.

  • My iPhone 4 no longer stays connected to wifi.

    I have to manually connect to all networks (previously known ones) and even that won't work.  I'm having to turning my phone off and turn it back on.  That works....for a bit.  It's getting annoying.  It's not my router (everything else works fine on it) and it's every network, even the ones at work.  My phone randomly switches from wifi to 3G

    It's a 1G ATV, 160Gig.
    The wireless is an Access Point w/WPA encryption and all DHCP is done by a remote wired router in a closet. Resetting each has had no effect on it. I don't see a setting anywhere on my ATV that I can change to turn off periodic standby mode.
    I actually replaced an Airport Extreme w/ this D Link AP & it's worked great for every other device. I had the exact same issue with the Airport Extreme although it seems like after the latest ATV SW upgrade, it does it every day. Previously it would only do it occasionally.

  • TS1398 iPhone 5 won't stay connected to WiFi

    My phone sees the networks and connects but then it drops.   This started happening after the new iOS 7.1 installation.  Here's what I've done so far to try to correct the problem:
    reset all the network settings
    complete restore of the iPhone, twice. Once using iCloud once, not.
    Nothing seems to work.   Could this be a hardware issue?

  • TS1398 Iphone 4s will not stay connected to wifi after update

    I can see my network, it connects for a few seconds and then disconnects. This started after the update.  I have tried reseting the router, the phone..............everything 100X.
    All my other devices work fine and other types of phones can connect to my network. It's a specific problem wth this phone.

    Hello Danielle,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with Wi-Fi on your iPhone 4s.  I recommend the following steps:
    Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your W-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
    Tap and Forget this Network.
    Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
    Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
    If the issue is still unresolved Wi-Fi disconnects or signal strength is less than expected
    Move closer to the Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Check for sources of potential interference.
    Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if signal strength improves.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including
    previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
    recently used Bluetooth accessories
    VPN and APN settings

  • IPhone won't stay connected to Wifi....period

    I have to start a new discussion because I cannot find the answer anywhere else. I wanted to give this a shot before I go to Apple/Verizon and/or go back to my Droid.
    My iPhone 4S will not stay connected to wifi at all. I can connect no problem, and then once the screen shuts off or I move the phone the wrong way it disconnects itself.
    I've done everything I could to try and remedy this, I reset the network settings twice, restored my phone three times, and reboot my wireless modem countless times. My wireless settings are fine, I can't figure out what else to do. This is getting rediculous.

    If this is happening after you've restored your phone as new and with every wifi network you connect to, it's a hardware issue. The phone needs to be replaced

  • HT1695 My iPhone 4S won't stay connected to my wifi any longer.

    My iPhone 4S won't stay connected to my wifi any longer. This just started after the recent update to iOS 6.1.2 (or 6.1.1). If I do a reboot, it'll connect the first time, but then drops later, and won't reconnect until I reboot again. Any suggestions?

  • IPhone 4S not staying connected to wifi?

    I have both iPad and iPhone connected to same wifi, but my iPhone 4S does not stay connected.  I have tried to reset network, restart iPhone and they do connect but disconnects shortly afterwards.  Can anyone help me?

    Did you solve this problem? My new MacBook Pro 15" running 10.8.2 has exactly the problem you describe with our new Netgear N600. The other devices in our house (iMac running 10.5, a PC and an iPhone 3Gs) have no connectivity probelms at all.
    I have no problem connecting with my MBP at work or elsewhere. The problem is just at home with the N600.
