IPhone 5 WLAN problems

Hey everyone!
I have some trouble with my iphone. The situation is as following: I am having trouble with ym iPhone 5 in my network. My house has 2 routers one on top floor and one on ground floor. All devices except the iPhone 5 have great signal. My iPhone 5 refuses to join one of the networks for some reason, though it has 2 bars signal strength. It is really odd... Anyone else having this kind of problems??
In a dicussion in German forums we have spoke about the software updates as a solution. Now I am running iOS 6.1.2 and 6.1.3 doesn't mention anything about bugfixing any WLAN issuess. Seems other user had simialr problems like I'm having. Any suggestions?
Regards, AX

If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPhone. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
First, test your iPhone on some other networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If your iPhone does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. Contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPhone is bad.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

WiFi (WLAN) problem - in the same room a iOS 5 device connects, iOS 6 not

Hi all,
I won't say that it's a proof for the iOS 6 WiFi/WLAN problem. BUT, it's evident that my iPhone 4 with iOS 5 sees all WLAN-networks and connects - my new iPad with iOS 6 doesn't! And I'm using the two devices in the same room. In addition my new iPad didn't have connection problems before updating to iOS 6.
Apple Software Engineers - please help and release the next update to fix it
Best regards
O.

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.

Habe seit IOS 6 wlan Probleme, die auch nach dem IOS 6.0.1 update nicht behoben sind.

Habe seit IOS6 wlan Probleme, die auch nach dem IOS6.0.1 update nicht behoben sind. Genau wie vorher, voller Empfang aber keine Verbindung. Gibt es noch neue Tipps wie man das beseitigen kann oder muss man auf ein weiters update warten?

Hallo,
bei mir kommt immer die Meldung "Verbindung zu ...(mein WLAN) fehlgeschlagen".
Nachdem alle Empfehlungen wie Neustart, WLAN aus und einschalten etc. nicht geholfen haben, habe
ich auf Empfehlung von telefonischem Apple Support mein iPhone 4S auf Werkseinstellungen zurückgesetzt und als neues iPhone konfiguriert. Leider ebenfalls ohne Erfolg! Meine sonstigen Geräte (iPhone 3GS, iPad2, ein weiteres iPhone 4S, die alle noch unter IOS5 laufen, funktionieren einwandfrei!)
Wer weiß, wie man wieder auf das gute alte IOS5 zurückkommt, zumindest bis Apple das Problem gelöst hat?

IPhone WLAN Reset Fritz!Box

Hallo,
ich wollte heute per WLAN eine App (MyVideo) nutzen und nachdem ich die APP
geöffnet habe fiel mein WLAN aus. Dann habe ich mich neu verbinden lassen mit
meinem WLAN und habe eine andere APP (WhatsAPP) versucht und dort das selbe
Ergebnis das WLAn war wieder weg.
Dann habe ich mich mal neben meine Fritzbox gesetzt und es wieder getestet und
sah dann das wenn ich die APP auf dem iPhone starte meine Fritzbox resetet. Ein
Test meines WLANs mit einem Tablet und Notebook funktionierte ohne Probleme.
Was kann ich nun tun um auch wieder mit meinem iPhone WLAN nutzen zu können?
Würde mich über schnelle Hilfe freuen.
Gruß
Hajo

Hi All
This is my first post so be gentle!!
I was using my BTOpenreach modem with my Draytek 2830Vn+. Unfortunately the Draytek has now been refunded due to a fault and I'm back on my HomeHub3.
After much research I have found FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7390 to be a good replacement for both Modem and Router.
Can anyone confirm this will work with my BT Infinity line and does it perform better than the BT Supplied equipment? How is the wireless perfromance and even the Ethernet Performance?
Also how long has this been out for is it worth waiting for a newer model?
Thanks!
Hi sohail579
The fritz!box 7390 definitly works with Infinity, even with the factory firmware, you just set the VLAN to 101 and NO password needed. Even easier when using newer firmware.
Ethernet performance is just as good, wireless I found slightly weaker signal, but does have simultaneous dual band wireless, so might help you there.
It is more expensive than the Draytek 2750, but does offer far more for the money.
Plug your phones into it, it is also a Dect base station, it has 5 answerphones, VOIP and many many more features.
That is why it is expensive.
If you have your phones connected mine did not give out Caller Indentification , although AVM say it should and are looking into it but after 2 months still not working. Unfortunatly I cannot wait, I must have Caller ID and had to let mine go.
I believe it has been out for about 6-9 months.
So to sum up, if you really need all the fetures go for the Fritz, but remember (my caller ID) was not working
If you dont need all the features drop down to the Draytek 2750n and save a bit of money.
If you go for the Fritz , the cheapest place I could find for the International version was in France.

I m trying to send a email and sms alert to people and it works fine on all systems expect on Iphone,the problem is swedish charcters doesn't show on iphones used by people in sweden but works absolutely fine on iphones in india.
the code i m using is right below,plz have a look and not into the problem as problem is a bit strange.
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n" ;
            $headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"UTF-8\"\n";
            $headers .= "X-Priority: 1 (Highest)\n";
            $headers .= "X-MSMail-Priority: High\n";
            $headers .= "Importance: High\n";
            // Additional headers
            $headers .= 'From: Rakesh <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";

Iphone 4 problems after 7.0.2 update--Especially with keyboard entries

I am having serious iphone 4 problems after installing the 7.0.2 update. Mostly it is with use of the keyboard. Each key stroke takes about 8 seconds to show. It is truly disabling. Apparently many others have had various problems. The one thing the Apple Tech would tell me was that 7.0.2 cannot be uninstalled. I have restarted & reset. Settings shows I have more that 20 free GB of space, though I don't know if that's important.
Sure would appreciate help! Thank you!

settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
also turn off automatic app updated...

May be you have turned the DO NO DISTURB in your iphone settings.
Check as below DND settings
Settings>>Do Not Disturb
If you are iPhone is on version iOS 5.X there was a bug which does not let the DO NOT DISTURB function properly.
SO, its better you to latest iOS version 7.0.4, no other versions of iOS are signed by APPLE hence forth.

try this and see if it works: connect your iPhone and open up iTunes on your PC. Go to your phone's page. Under Summary page, check manually manage music and videos.

Hello rj_23_sv,
I would be be concerned too if I was not able to update my iPhone. If you have not resolved the issue, I recommend following article for an issue like this:

As always, it is a good idea to create a backup before hand:

My iphone has problem activating. It says incorrect apple id but the apple id is correct

My iphone has problem activating. It says incorrect apple id but the apple id is correct ?

FAQ apple id http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622?viewlocale=en_US
You are seeing your old apple id because that was the ID that was used to download the app, you can't merge apple id.
to update the app, you will have to enter the old password.
Any new apps you download with your new id, will use that id and password.

IPhone camera problems.

Ok. I'm running 3.1.3 on iPhone 3G.
Recently my iPhone just decided that it wasn't going to let me take pictures anymore. All it allows me to do is open the camera app and it shows the camera shutter and that's all it shows and a restart of iPhone doesn't work and a restore of iPhone doesn't help. I don't know what the problem could be. It hasn't gotten any water damage or any physical damage to cause this to happen. I really wish someone could help ! I love to take pictures of funny things and show my friends. Now it used to be jailbroken but I unjailbroke it about a week after 3.1.3 came out and it hasn't been jailbroken since. This problem just started with my iPhone about two days ago.

Hello. I have just purchased a used Apple iphone (8GB)from a local salesmen that sells used items for a cheap price. (For example I purchased this phone for the low price of $200.00). After I purchased it I took it home and, with the instructions given by the salesperson, I jail broke my iphone to a Cincinnati Bell Network Plan with my current SIM card. I realized the iphone worked perfectly as if it was brand new, except for one thing, when I went to take a picture the camera didn't work correctly. While researching my iphone's problem on the internet I have not seen a problem quite like mine. I will explain: When you open the app for "camera" on my iphone by clicking on it the camera comes up, but instead of showing on the screen what a normal camera would show, it simply shows a screen that looks to me as what a closed lens of a digital camera would look like if the screen were to show you. It looks like a closed camera lens every time I open up the app with a small icon on the bottom which symbolizes a camera. When you click on the camera icon the iphone does nothing and acts as if you clicked on nothing. To solve this problem I have taken it back to the salesman to ask for help. He took it in for 2 days in which he said he would fix it. When he returned it he sated that he fixed the problem and all I would have to do is put a different camera app on my iphone. However after trying 3 different camera apps, which i wasted money on, I am still left with the same closed lens look on every camera app I have installed. All the camera apps on my phone, new and old, do not react to any touching of the screen after open to open the lens or take a picture. They just simply show the "closed lens" look on the screen, thus NOT fixing my problem. Thank you for any help you can address my problem with. It is much appreciated and if I can fix this problem I won't feel as if I have wasted $200.00 and counting on my iphone and the apps I have installed to fix the issue addressed above.
Thanks again for any assistance in this matter,
Batsakis
