My Iphone 4 (ios 7) does not register any wifi network

ive tried everything all my other devices connect to the home wifi fine so why wont it???

The freezer really works people!!
My 4S couldnt detect any networks today.
With little time i found the freezer idea on the forums, i thought it was BS to be honest.
But i tried the whole airplane mode and network reset and nothing worked so i tried  the freezer.
Ziploc bag and left it in the freezer for 30 mins with 20% battery life. When I pulled it out it was dead so hooked it up to the charger, waited for the chagre and no success on the wifi. So yah i thought BS.
So then I followed all the other apple care steps such as backing up the phone, erasing the phone. But even when the phone was erased it couldnt detect any networks. So i restored the phone from itunes and still no wifi.
Then I read a key note on the forums about the freezing.
They said turn the wifi off and cool for 10-15 mins
So iphone being charged now after the back up and restore i tried the freezer again.
15 mins in ziploc bag with wifi off and full battery and behold!
I finally detected networks again!!
Good Luck!

    If no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem with the wireless card or with something else.

  • Airport on computer does not see any wifi networks

    Airport worked fine until recently and worked fine when I installed new OS a while back. I can see no wifi networks including my Airport Express. My other Mini sees it and others as well as my MacBook so it seems to be an issue with that computer.
    Sometimes I can log into my network by choosing Join Other Network but sometimes it doesn't work like now. Earlier today I logged in in this method and then it dropped out and I haven't been able to connect again. Any suggestions as to what the problem is?

    Yes, I had thought of that too. Just wanted to avoid buying another card without being sure of the problem.
    I've now tried setting up two routers to the 5GHz band, and sure enough, they both work and their wifis are picked by the macmini. All the other wifi networks I see around my house seem to be 54g.
    So it seems that only the b/g part of the macmini's wifi card is broken, while the n part is working properly. Do you know if this is possible or if there is a configuration in the macmini that is forcing it to only use the 802.11N?
    Thanks for your help anyway!

  • My Apple TV does not see any wifi networks after 7 update.

    i Have recently updated my Apple TV to 7 and ever since then I cannot see any wiif networks. I can connect through wired connection and works fine. I have tried Apple troubleshoo page and nothing works. Any ideas?

  • My iphone 4s does not show any wifi networks

    I have tried many suggested solutions(below) and nothing is working. Any other suggestions please?
    - restart phone
    - restart router then phone
    - reset network settings
    - reset all settings
    - enable mac filter on router and adding the MAC address of the phone
    - Airplane mode on / off
    - changed channels on the router

    if other devices can connect to the routers.  but not your phone.  i would take it to the apple store to have them trouble shoot the wireless in the phone.  if you reset everything and still can't get a connection then its the phone thats the issue.  just as a test.  have you restored phone back to factory ?  of course backing it up first ?  if not i would try that.  go to settings on phone.  general.  reset to factory after doing a backup.  then try after that.  but don't restore your files yet.  test before you add your restore. 

  • Iphone 4s was unable to detect any wifi networks and was told to pay £159 to get the entire phone replaced, should i do it?

    My iphone 4s does not detect any wifi networks but the apple genius said that the wifi signal seems to be fine but it just is not detecting any wifi networks and because I cannot find my receipt for the phone and the apple store only dates back purchases up to 18months ago, is there a way i can obtain my receipt?

    If your warranty is up, the replaced iPhone will have a 90 day warranty.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
    If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service Fee listed below.
    Please note Out-of-Warranty Repair Service fees from your carrier may be different than those listed below.
    iPhone Model
    Out-of-Warranty Service
    iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c,
    iPhone 5

    iPhone 4s
    £ 166.44
    iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
    iPhone 3G
    £ 126.44
    The Out-of-Warranty Service Fee includes a £ 7.44 shipping fee, which applies only if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in British pound sterling and include VAT. iPhone Out-of-Warranty Service may also be available from your wireless carrier. Pricing may vary.
    When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorisation for the maximum service fee listed above. This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
    Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare product coverage, whichever is longer.

  • My iphone 4s is no longer detecting wifi since the ISO8 updates came out. I've restarted, rest the networks, reset the phone back to factory settings, and even tried the freezer trick. It is STILL not detecting ANY wifi networks. HELP!!!

    My iphone 4s is no longer detecting wifi since the IOS8 updates came out. I've restarted, rest the networks, reset the phone back to factory settings, and even tried the freezer trick. It is STILL not detecting ANY wifi networks. HELP!!! I cannot afford to go over my data and I use wifi at home and work... I believe the updates have caused the issue, because it was working fine before the second update released (I hadn't put the first one one until I noticed it had stopped working, and by then the second IOS8 version had came out). They need to do a third update to fix this issue.

    If it's grayed out:
    Reset Network Settings - if that doesn't fix it, then Backup and Restore AS A NEW DEVICE.
    If it's still grayed out, unfortunately that means your Wi-Fi antenna quit, and it needs service.

  • TS1398 my iphone 4s can not scan any wifi network, i tried everything but still can not scan any wifi connection even though our wifi is working properly in our mac book and ipad. What do i need to do if the problem is the hardware?pls help

    my iphone 4s can not scan any wifi network, i tried everything but still can not scan any wifi connection even though our wifi is working properly in our mac book and ipad. What do i need to do if the problem is the hardware?pls help

    When you say it "can not scan any wifi network" do you mean it is not detecting Wi-Fi networks?
    Is Wi-Fi turned on in Settings > General > Wi-Fi?
    Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
    Is it just the home network that the device will not connect to? or any network?

  • Satelite A30 does not see any other network devices in WLan

    I recently bought a Toshiba Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card, i've installed it and managed to get it to recognise my broadband but it does not see any other network devices. I was not supplied with any drivers or software to operate the card (I bought it from a proper dealer). Can you recommend downloads that would run this card?
    I have a Satelite A30 laptop 1gb ram 60GB HDD.
    Also large files sometimes stop transfering (hangs)when using my USB connection. The usb controller is using microsoft driver 5.1.2600.0 dated 1 june 2002.
    Is this a driver problem?

    Hi
    If the WLan card is properly installed so you have only not configured you settings.
    I dont know which devices in the broadband you mean but usually if you want to communicate or transfer files between notebooks through the WLan so all computers must be in the same domain or workgroup.
    I cannot give you a proper answer but only a suggestion. I have red that sometimes a lower power could be responsible for such issue. Try to disable the option Power safe in the USB root hub properties in the device manager.

  • Re: Satellite A350D - Does not find any WLAN network

    Because the e-mail-support page doesn't works at the moment (after sending a message I only get a blank page) I will ask my question here.
    Since maybe 2 or 3 months my connection to WLAN-networks is really bad. I have nothing changed, neither the Windows version (Windows 7) nor drivers, but it does not work as good as it was.
    Some examples:
    I'm sitting 5 metres away from the wlan router. Only a wall is seperating. The notebook does not find any wlan-network. With my HP notebook the connection is good. I'm sitting on the desk where the router stands. The notebook finds the network, but Windows says connection seems to be only average or bad. My HP notebook has the best connection rating.
    Anybody here who can help or can say how I contact the support per e-mail without getting only this blank page?
    Greetings Schlachtvieh

    Hey,
    After WLAN driver update make also sure that power saving mode is disabled for WLAN card. You can do this in Windows Power Management.

    Driver update in such cases its always advisable but in my case it was the power saving of WLAN card. :)

  • IMAC can not see any wifi networks at all?

    IMAC can not find any wifi network at all. A few days ago the Imac suddenly had no wifi and on turning the WIFI on and off it became apparent that when it scans for wifi it can see no wifi networks at all. I have several other computers and they all see the wifi networks fine. I assume it is a hardware issue but the hardware test I preformed comes up with no errors. Anyone got any ideas?

  • The version of iOS on does not match any of the versions of iOS supported for development with this installation of the iOS SDK

    Getting this error message as of this morning: The version of iOS on “iPad” does not match any of the versions of iOS supported for development with this installation of the iOS SDK. Please restore the device to a version of the OS listed below, or update to the latest version of the iOS SDK. I've downloaded the latest SDK and gone through the usual turn off and turn on again for iPad and computer, removed and reinstalled the iPad from Organizer and have no idea how to make apps build now. I was prompted to update the iphone too but there's no way I'm updating it if this issue can't be resolved.

    Okay these are the steps I took to solve the problem - they may not be the right ones for you but they've solved the problem and saved time hunting for some other solution. Firstly I changed my MAC system to Lion with the £20 download, then I deleted the old Xcode and installed the new version that is app based and doesn't support Snow Leopard, then all was well. I can now update my xcode via the app which is quicker and more logical and can update my iPhone rather than chug along avoiding updates as I need to update my existing apps on the app store and upload a new one.
