IPhone 5 WiFi Problems (iOS 6.1.4)

I need some help. Previously, on a Belkin router, my WiFi connection was iffy but usable for online gaming most of the time. My family recently switched to Verizon Fios, and now I'm having some problems. The WiFi cuts out on me every 2-3 minutes when playing games online; and sometimes it becomes extremely slow when web browsing or other things. Recently it was telling me that my password to the router was incorrect when it clearly was not, so I had to reset my whole phone. I'm really annoyed right now, if this is apple's fault. If the security type has anything to do with it, it is WPA2, and it's connected to my mom's computer so there is not a big chance she will allow me to change it.
At my dad's house, I have virtually no issues. Not sure of the WiFi and router type, but it is not Verizon Fios. Does anyone know any way to fix this? Or should I just take my phone to an Apple Store and try to get a replacement? None of Apple's "suggestions" have helped me at all.
All advice/help is appreciated.

Hello tinadang
I would force quit the app if it is not responding, just follow the steps in the articles below.

It should connect properly with your iPad mini, but it requires an App. Also mentioned on Garmins' site.

IPhone WiFi Problem

I cannot get my IPHONE to access the internet via WiFi from home. Hot Spots work fine. I have updated the firmware on my Linksys router and talked with tech support from Cox (my ISP) and Linksys in India. The WiFi on the IPHONE does connect to the router and can connect to a web server on my LAN but I cannot access the Internet.
Apple tech support thinks it's the router, Linksys thinks it's the Cable Modem and Cox says it can't be them. I have disabled all encryption and all house computers connect as well as a WiFi HP IPAQ. I have even tried a Motorola router with no success. Anyone have any Ideas?

Had the same problem....maybe this can help...

IPhone Wifi problems and Warranty Query.

Hi there,
I've been having serious trouble with my iPhone, the problem is that it won't pick up a wifi signal unless I hold the phone literally a foot away from the router (I've tried this with 3/4 routers I've had access to).
I've tried restoring the iPhone as well as trying all the fixes mentioned in the Apple article regarding the issue such as resetting network settings, etc.
I phoned Apple and they said that seeing my iPhone was purchased in Spain that they can't fix it here in the U.K. I thought this was diabolical considering that the warranty is a worldwide one, or at least I thought that it was.
Could someone clarify this issue as I find it hard to believe that an international company would have such localised policies regarding warranty validity.

While most Apple warranties are world wide, the iPhone warranty can only be used in the country where the iPhone was originally sold:
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/#repair2
+Can I get my iPhone serviced outside the country of purchase?+
+No, service for eligible repairs is only available in the country where your iPhone was originally purchased.+
If you want it replaced, you will have to deal with Apple's departments in Spain.

Iphone wifi problem|CHN,SH|131002|

Hello,Apple.
My friend bought a iphone5 in USA last December . Yesterday I can not use Wifi on this phone, The wifi can search the signal，but it can not add in.Only when I am very close to, wifi can be added in. I tried every thing for my iphone. so I think it maybe a hardware problem.
But I am living in Shanghai，China. I can not get a normal warranty in Apple China.
So can you give me a solution？
IPHONE 5, WHITE ,16GB

Best regards

Apple provides service through its own stores, and thorough authorized resellers. If you purchased it from an authorized reseller they are obligated to repair it under warranty, as long as it isn't jailbroken or hacked. If you didn't buy it from an authorized reseller then Apple has no obligation to fix it, but a reputable store would still repair it for you. It sounds like you may have a "grey market" phone. The problem with grey market is there may be no meaningful warranty.

So, you've tried all of these steps [iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim - Support - Apple] and it still doesn't work?

I solved my Iphone Wifi Problems

Since upgrading to 3.0, I had been unable to connect to the internet using my home wifi access point. The interesting part was that I could connect to the wifi network and interact with the other computers in the network, I just couldn't connect to the internet (all other wifi devices in the network could connect to the internet). After trying everything, it occured to me to change the DNS in the iphone to my router's IP address (given that the router already knows the ISP's DNS address). For some reason, this worked. I now have excellent connectivity to the internet, as well as access to all other devices in the network. I hope this works for someone else.
PS. You need to use static IP configuration for this to work. Also, my wifi is WEP encrypted.

Hopefully you're on to a possible solution for those with fixed ip addresses, us lesser mortals will have to sit tight and wait for the guys with the "it just works" slogan to pull there fingers out and rectify the 3.0 firmware upgrade that's killed everyones wifi.
Why is it not one wifi issue on the forum has had a genuine Apple reply?
I'm disgusted at their lack of acknowledgment of the problem they've created!
I might buy another mobile with Windows on it, actually things aren't that bad just yet but close.

So I just updated my iphone 4S to iOS 6 and was having fun trying the panorama pictures, and all of the sudden my phone turned off (it was fully charged so it's not out of batery and it felt warm) and it has since not turned on again. Suggestions?

Even if it is a hardware problem they should fix it regardless of warranty. If you buy a car and after 1.5 years the doors fall off due to a failure in their design and construction, do you think the car manufacturer could pull off what Apple is trying to do? Yes the car still delivers its primary objective of driving from A to B, but significant functionality has been lost due to their fault.
It is the same with this iPhone wifi problem. Apple are a disgrace, I have had significant Apple Hardware failures with my MacBook Pro and iPhone within 2 years of purchase. Pathetic quality.

Problem with wifi of iphone 4 with ios 7 - 7.1

the problem is not I cant connect to the internet through wifi or its not i cant connect to wifi, the problem is i cant watch videos on youtube through wifi and i dont know why. i upgraded my iphone 4 from ios 7 to 7.1 but the problem still occurs. i dont know exactly whether the problem is on ios 7 - 7.1 or on youtube app. besides that, the download process of every app through wifi often stops then i have to click to try to download again. i've done reset everything but the problem still occurs. dude, before i had ios 7 - 7.1 on my iphone 4, I NEVER HAD THOSE PROBLEMS, it went smoothly like a bird's flying in the sky unless a jetplane hits it. i dont think i should buy higher iphone and put my iphone 4 into the trash because i saw the problem occured on iphone 4s - 5s, but i think i should buy other phone with other OS if i dont get the solution

my internet speed is 2 Mbps, the router has 5 GHz. i dont think the problem is on my internet or on my router because:
1. i ve been playing xbox through wifi, no problem.
2. i also have laptop and i use laptop to be online and watch videos on youtube by my laptop, no probem.
3. i had ios 6.1.3 before, watched videos on youtube (sometimes i watch videos by my iphone), downloaded applications, they went smoothly.
we know that apple have updated iOS many times, and youtube also have updated the application many times, i thought the problem might be on ios or on youtube app or on both of them. but then, i tried watching videos by safari on my iphone, it wouldnt load either. so i think the problem is on wifi of my iphone, seems ios 7 - 7.1 have ******** my iphone 4's wifi.
there is no problem streaming videos by my iphone 4 (ios 7 - 7.1) through 3G network. it goes very smoothly through 3G network

Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 I'm having compatibility issues with my speakers and my iTunes wifi sync isn't working. Anyone else having the same problems?

Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 I'm having compatibility issues with my speakers / docking station and my iTunes wifi sync isn't working. Anyone else having the same problems? Both worked fine until the update...

Okay. I got it working again by setting it up as a new phone instead of just syncing. Then I backed up. All is good today.

I both uptdated the into Update iOs 6.0 -
Bug 1 : With the white iPhone 4 i have a real Wifi Problem, as close as 5 to 7 meters from any WiFi spot, i lose the signal, where my "black" iphone at the same time and same distance shows full signal (and tested with safari.... works).
Bug 2 : Once the white iphone is in "stand by" when trying to unlock on incoming call, the touch screen works and receive the touch information, but it bugs on trying to unlock to receive the call. (very very anoying :o) have to call back almost every time.
Are those already known bugs ? Is there a fix ?

Nah... there simply is not iOS 6 Wi-Fi problem with the 4S. I have not experienced any issues and neither has anyone else I know with iPhones.
User's like yourself really should drop the attitude and try some basic troubleshooting.
