  • IPhone 4S won't stay connected to wifi

    iPhone 4S won't stay connected to wifi? Fix?

    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...).

  • 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?

  • 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 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

  • 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.

  • IPHONE 3G Won't stay connected to bluetooth hands free on car hifi

    Hello,
    I have just switched to the iphone 3G from my Nokia 8800 and the iphone 3G won't stay connected to my Pioneer head unit! It connects OK manually but the "AUTO" connection function on the Pioneer does not work with the Iphone, But it does work with the Nokia OK!!
    So everytime i come back to the car it doesn't work till i go through the whole connection 5 minute procedure again!
    Have factory reset the pioneer but no cigar.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks, Chris

    I would try a reset or a restore first. Also, chances are that you paid for your phone using a credit card. Most credit cards give buyer an extra year of warranty protection. If you paid with a credit card and the purchase date is less than two years, call your credit card company and ask if they can pay for the repair.

  • Apple tv won't stay connected to wifi

    my apple tv won't stay connected to wifi.  what's the issue?

    Answers can only be as helpful as the details provided.  And in this case none were give.  What is happening?  Error message?  Other WiFi devices have issues?  It is actually losing the connection or is your streaming content just freezing?
    Trying to do streaming video over WiFi is not a great idea.  Even if you are using the really high end WiFi hardware it will never be completely solid.  You really want to use a wired connection for that.

    my iphone will not connect to wifi no matter what HELP

    Have you tryed to restore the iPhone too ?
    Restore the phone in iTunes using a backup, and if needed as a new iPhone, without using a backup.  However, the greyed out WiFi is often due to a hardware failure requiring replacement of the phone.

  • New iPhone 5s won't stay connected to my iMac,

    brand new, up to date iphone 5s won't stay conected to my imac 10.7.5, computer says iphone lacks necessary services. seems to connect briefly before dissing my phone. what to do?

    The little circle means you are connected to Edge data (if you are on GSM). It is the slowest of the data speeds. There has to be a reason you are losing your wifi. Have you tried to reset your wifi router? Does the wifi stay connected at locationis other than home? Steps to try for wifi troubles are after resetting the router, reset your phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together  until you see the Apple logo and then release. If this does not help, then go into Settings, General, Reset, Reset Network Settings. Understand this will remove all wifi passwords of other wifi networks as well. If this doesn't work, then you may have to try and restore the phone, first from a backup and if that doesn't help, then as a new device.

  • IPhone won't Stay connected to Wifi, please help

    i will connect to wifi, and everything will be ok when im on the phone. but when i lock it and set it down for awhile then go to unlock it the 3G is there and not the wifi symbol. i am wanting to know why that is. it hasn't done it before until now. i recenlty restored my phone because of some other issues my phone was having. those issues are fixed as far as i can tell. but this issue has just appeared. i have also been away from home so i am not on my home wifi, i am on my friends wifi. i feel as if my phone doing this that it is killing my battery alot faster then it should. so my question is why is it doing this? thanks for the help.

    It is doing this because this is the way iOS is designed to work.  Turning off Wi-Fi when the device is asleep and not actively using the Wi-Fi saves battery life.
    Now, if the device were streaming audio or doing something that would use the Wi-Fi and stay active when the device is put to sleep, the Wi-Fi will stay active as long as that apps/feature is still using the Wi-Fi.
