IPhone 6 won't connect to cell data after leaving wifi

iPhone 6 won't connect to cell data after leaving wifi signal.  Need to reboot or go into airplane mode.  My area has LTE, but iPhone hasn't connected to that ever.  I'm thinking bad antenna or is this a cell provider problem.  I'm on AT&T.

  • IPhone 5c won't connect to cellular data after leaving wi-fi

    Every time i leave my house's wifi for some reason my i phone 5c wont connect to celluar data? is this happaning to anyone els? please help   and i just got my phone 4 days ago 2/24/14 Carrier Sprint.

    Okay, if it is displaying 1X in the corner, then you are connecting to their slow internet. You need to contact Sprint and have them check your account. It almost looks like you are not provisioned correctly for data. Also, what is the signal strength on the phone when you are seeing this?
    You can try a couple of troubleshooting steps before contacting Sprint. First, power the phone off. Hold the sleep/wake button down until you can see the red slider, then slide that until the phone powers off. Turn the phone back on and after it boots up, see if that corrects your problem. If not, then try a reset. This will not affect any data on your phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. This can take 15-30 seconds.

  • IPhone won't connect to a WEP, non-broadcasting wifi router

    I seem to be stuck in some kind of a wifi nether-world.
    I'm trying to join the wifi network at work, which doesn't broadcast itself and has a WEP password.
    I put in the name, WEP password in the "Other" setting, but it said that it was unable to join. I tried several times, and nothing.
    So, on a whim, I changed the password to WPA. It "joined" it, but still has the padlock next to the name and still loads all it's data off EDGE.
    So I hit forget network, tried to join it using the working WEP password, and it "joined" it again, still not loading.
    Are there any other steps I might be missing?
    Someone suggested that I just totally restore the iPhone, someone on Engadget had a similar problem evidently. I tried it today, and it still won't connect.
    I can't figure it out. It's the exact same network that I'm posting from right this minute, connected on my Macbook. I've typed in the network name and password a dozen times.

    Hey Keith Dubya,
    Try to make the iPhone forget the network as described here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305715
    Also when you enter the password make sure you have selected the correct security type. Settings>Wi-FI>Network name>Security. You may have to change the security type to WEP hex or ASCII

  • My iPad won't connect via cell after installing iOS6 and may now think it is an iPhone!?!

    Question pretty much says it all...
    I upgraded to iOS6 and now I cannot connect to anything using cell/3G/4G. Error messages say odd things like 'Your iPhone is not configured properly'.  Odd that an iPad would say this!
    So I CAN use the iPad For now via wifi but when I turn on the cellular data under the main Settings screen, there are no options/buttons to access my AT&T data service, check my account, etc, like would normally be there with iOS5.  The poly options available are to either turn on cellular data and to set SIM PIN..
    When I turn on cellular data, it goes to 'Searching...' in the upper left of the screen as it would normally do if I was out of range of a cell tower or something and just keeps 'searching'.
    So...any thoughts?  I'm unable to find a place to look at my AT&T data account anywhere under settings to verify that it exists and the iPad is 'touching' it. 
    I'd prefer not to wipe clean and start again from last restore but I am at the end of my creative and technical capabilities.
    Ideate away!

  • IPhone 5s won't automatic connect to cellular network after the wifi connection lost.

    My iPhone 5s won't automatic connect to cellular network after the wifi connection lost. I have try make a restore and open again my cellular data but the problem is still there, after I try to restart my iphone then can use my cellular data, but after few hour ago I still confront the same problem too.

    I also tried a total reset. But it didn't work.

  • IP Address Is Duplicate and iPhone Won't Connect

    Everything was working for last 2+ years, then my modem died yesterday. I replaced it, but can't get back to where I was. I ended up restoring network to factory settings and then doing connection.
    I have AT&T DSL service. When setting up the connection with my AirPort Extreme, have Ethernet with Bridge Mode. I receive message that "another device on the network is using your computers IP address." I didn't have this issue when setting up 2+ years ago. So, I manually changed the IP address, but this caused a message about DNS not being correct, which I ignored, because this at least gave me access to Internet, and I didn't have to "borrow" from one of my neighbors unprotected networks. I have implemented WPA2 security (which I had prior to this also).
    Issues I now have are:
    - iPhone won't connect, and it did before all this
    - HP Photosmart printer (which is wireless) also won't connect, as it did before
    I assume that all my issues are from not configuring correctly, and that it revolves around the IP address conflict.
    Any assistance?

    You need to do a Factory Default Reset on the AirPort Extreme (AEBS) to clear out all the old settings and IP conflicts.
    Pull the power plug on the AEBS
    Hold in the reset button and while you continue to hold it in, plug the power back in to the AEBS
    Release the reset button after 10 seconds.
    Open AirPort UTility and set it up again to Create a wireless network.
    It's easiest to click Continue and follow the guided setup.
    Ignore the Double NAT message when/if it appears.
    I know this works. I have the exact same equipment on my desk now.

  • Iphone won't connect to windows 7 hotspot

    Hello,
    My iphone won't connect to a windows 7 hotspot (which I created in my laptop). I do find it in the iphone's WiFi menu, but it appears under devices rather than as usual WiFi coneection. When I try to connet, the following message appears: "JorgeHOTSPOT has no connection to the internet. are you sure you want to use this newwork?"
    Can anyone help me to solve this.
    Cheers,
    Jorge.

    One day later: My solution
    I went to the Apple Store with a Genius onliine appointment a few hours after posting this. They couldn't connect it either. One of the terminals had CORRODED. In 4 months. They replaced the phone. I think I used it in the rain once.
    My comment:
    I had a Radio Shack TRS-80 Model I long ago in the stone age. This was one of the first PC's and competed with the Apple model I. It connected to external floppy drives with uncoated steel terminals on the connectors.  It cost $2200 in 1977 dollars, now at least $6500, because you could buy a VW for $4000 at the time. It was necessary to go over the terminals with a pencil eraser every few months to get the corrosion off and polish them up. At least they were external and you could do this in a couple of minutes. My point is Radio Shack made a computer that cost half as much as a car unreliable because they saved pennies using cheap metal connectors. Ditto with the iPhone. Apple, what are you thinking? At least please make a terminal-polishing kit, because I can't get a pencil eraser in that tiny slot to clean them myself next time.

  • Iphone won't connect to wifi

    My iphone won't connect to my home wifi. It say's connected but when i try and go online it say's unable to connect. I've tried forgetting the network, turning wifi off and on. The ip address is ok and my laptop connects ok.
    Has anyone got any ideas about how i can fix it?

    I am having the same issues as GirlyGirl.  Every other day or so my iPhone 3GS won't connect to wifi.  Before I was showing the wifi signal as if it were attached but I couldn't surf Safari.  Now even though under the wifi settings it shows I'm connected, I don't get the wifi fan showing I'm connected.  I've done the following:
    Renewed lease
    Forgotten network
    Reset Network Settings
    Reboot my iPhone
    Two days ago when I rebooted the router and Reset Network Settings it started working correctly.
    I've been working with my internet provider, they tell me my firmware on my 2wire is up to date & the issue is definitely with my iPhone.
    Security Settings:  WPA-PSK (TKIP) and WPA2-PSK (AES)
    My iPhone is attaching to the 169.x IP Address and the Subnet is 255.255.0.0. The router, DNS and Search Domains are blank.
    Also to note, I changed the name of my device through the gateway router so I could identify it more easily.  As of today it had defaulted back to the old name which is the ip address. Even if I don't change anything it isn't keeping those settings.
    Other than restarting my router and taking everything down for 15 minutes each time, what else can I try? 

  • Iphone won't connect to wifi network

    iPhone won't connect to a wifi network - just get a message saying it won't connect to the network (it doesn't give me a message that I've got the password wrong). Other devices do join the network OK
    What should I do to try t resolve it?

    Hi,
    I bought my iPhone 4s yesterday and I'm having the same problem, my laptop, my old HTC Legend and my work macbook all connect to my wifi no problems.  My iPhone won't.
    I've read through everything I can find on here, and on Sky help and have tried:
    Resetting router
    Resetting network settings on iphone
    Using MAC address access control on the router
    Changing channels on the router
    Switching everything off and on
    Someone suggested doing 'forget network' on the iphone, but I can't find this option
    Turning off 3G and mobile data and trying to connect
    Checking password is correct (it is)
    Kind of at a loss now as to what I can do, I've emailed Sky and waiting for their advice, but should I take it back to the shop to exchange it?  Everything else I have connects just fine, no problem.
    It just says "unable to join network"
    Anyone help?
    Thanks

  • IPod touch 5th generation won't connect to the tv after doing up grade

    iPod 5th generation won't connect to the tv after doing an software update. Get an error message (this accessory is Not Supported by iPod touch) please help me with this

    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 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.  It could take well over an hour!  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."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • My iPhone 4 won't connect to our WiFi at home, but will at other WiFi spots.  However, my parent's iPhones work and connect just fine at home using WiFi.  I have called and talked to several people and no one seems to be able to help me.

    The two things to try first are renewing your network lease, forgetting the network and if that doesn't work to reset all networks. You might have tried one of these but I'll repeat the steps just to make sure.
    Settings > Wi-Fi > tap the blue arrow to the right of your network name > Renew Lease
    If that doesn't work then
    Settings > Wi-Fi > tap the blue arrow to the right of your network name > Forget this Network
    If that doesn't work
    Settings > General > Networks > Reset All Networks > then reset your iPhone by
    Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
    I hope one of these will help.

  • IPhone won't connect to Macbook Pro Hotspot!

    When I make my Macbook Pro into a hotspot my iPhone won't connect to the network. It'll detect, but won't connect. Running OS X 10.8.2 and  iOS 6.1 on an iPhone 5. Help!

    Post in the iPhone forum in as much as your settings need adjustment.

  • Iphone won't connect to internet or send messages

    My iPhone won't connect to the internet at all nor will it even send SMS messages.  I've already tried resetting the network settings and that did not work.  Are there any other solutions out there for this problem? 
    Thank you!

    Your right....I can't believe it. I disconnected my phone from my wifi. Shut it down and turned it back on. Sent myself an email message and on the 3G network phone picked up message immediately.
    Now I am seeing if the 30 minute rule you had still applies here.
    What a mess...but I gotta say, Love the phone, better battery, amazing screen, faster....just a few things that are really important going wrong!
