No wifi connectivity after ios 7.04 update on iPad2

I just updated the ios on my iPad 2 this afternoon to 7.04. What a mistake! I no longer can connect to wifi, which makes my iPad useless. I am sitting in front of my wifi router and the iPad will not connect to the signal. This is definitely a problem with the update, as it was connecting without problems with ios 7.03. My iPad hasn't connected since 4:40 this afternoon, November 24th. How do I fix this? Can I go back to the previous ios? Should I take it in to the Apple Store? Thanks for any advice!!!

Thanks for the suggestion
I actually had an accidental win with my phone, then a big fail, followed by #3 replacement...!
So I had to travel and was unable to replace it in time, so I travelled with the problematic phone. Its battery was going down rather quickly with a fair bit of use, and I got stuck out at the wedding I was attending and only about 17% charge left, but the need to use that power to get back to where I was staying! So, phone turned off for a few hours... when it was back on, viola, wifi reappeared.
It stayed available and working for a solid 2 weeks or more, but, as suddenly as it came back, it went. I turned it off before bed, then it was back the next day. Within 24 hours it was completely unavailable yet again.
So, a week ago (day 2 of it not working at all again), I decided to venture to an Apple Store to get diagnostics on it... and the guy I saw said as soon as the wifi is greyed out, its a replacement phone as it cannot be rectified by factory resets/etc. So just like that, I got a new phone... again.
As of tonight, almost a week on, the new one is behaving perfectly well. Yahoo!
It has been an ok experience using the express return service that Apple offers (we are out of the city we live in, so its nearly an hour drive to the nearest Apple shop)... but that trip was worth it for getting a pre-updated phone to play with and be sure its working ok upon delivery.
Glad to hear you have fixed your phone without needing the replacement!

  • IMac drops Wifi connection after 10.7.4 update

    Hello there,
    I am experiencing intermittent wifi connection problems after installing the 10.7.4 update on my 2011 iMac 27".
    The symption is that the iMac drop its Wifi connection after a period of time and when that happens the iMac cannot detect any wifi networks in my area (disabling & re-enabling Wifi on the iMac doesn't help). I have to resort to restarting the iMac to revive the wifi interface. Note that my other devices (including my iPhone and my MacBook Air) can connect to my Airport Extreme without any problems.
    Is there any "quick-fix" solutions out there that can fix this problem? I want to avoid a complete re-install as much as possible.

    Possible short term fix:
    Same issue. Mid 2011 iMac. Updated to 10.7.4 and wifi dropped. The iMac could see any SSID until it was rebooted. My MacBook Air, iPad and iPhone all fine.
    I went to Apple tech support and like others was faced with a slippery resistance to the idea that this was anything to do with 10.7.4.
    Eventually it was suggested I reinstalled Mac OS (switch off, switch on with cmd and R keys held down. Then follow the process. I wasn't hopeful but was compliant. Imagine my joy when, on coming back to me my iMac asked if I wanted to update to 10.7.4. Of course not!
    So reinstalling Mac OS takes you back to 10.7.3. So far so good. Will keep you posted.
    Still hoping fpr a proper fix from Apple but they don't seem to be taking seriously
    in contrast just updated Omin Group's Omniplan (BTW this is great software for the Mac, check out their offering if you haven't). The update notes:
    "It seems as if our fix to the Task: Schedule Inspector in 2.1.1 actually caused more widespread crashes. We've rewritten this code in a more robust fashion and have not seen this problem reappear"
    Owning and fixing the problem - Apple guys please take note!
    good luck

  • No wifi connection after ios upgrade

    I had iPad 2 wifi connection prior to the upgrade to a new IOS version.  It did not detect my wireless router at home.  I had tried to reset, and other possible suggestions found on the Internet, but none could help solved my wifi connection issue..  It will have connection if I sit next to my Verizon wireless.  If I move just a few feet away, there is no signal.
    I also brought it to my friends, and it did not detect any wireless router there.  But if I sit next to the wireless router, it detected it.
    Will try anything just to get my iPad to connect to the wifi again.
    Thiking of brining it the Apple Store and hope they can help.

    1) Delete your WiFi connection on your iPad.
    2) Power off your router.
    3) Do a reset on your iPad by pressing home and on/off button
    4) Power router back up.
    5) Add your WiFi connection back to your iPad.

  • Ipad3 losing  wifi connection after IOS 7.1 DL.  FIX??  I have reset, rebooted, etc.  This is unacceptable.

    my ipad 3 is losing wifi or not letting streaming content happen after DL of IOS 7.1.  WIll not connect to the internet either.  Fix?? I have rebooted everything. HELP! now i have a $600 brick.

    it sounds from your description like you have not made peace with your router.  suggest you reboot the router and the pad (as you have probably already done).  In settings, wifi - "forget" the network, the rejoin.  You will need to re input your password.
    In one case, I needed to actually change the password in the router, then rejoin - that seemed to wake it up.
    To test what is happening, go somewhere that has a public wifi - like a starbucks or Macdonalds - Make sure your wifi works there.  

  • Can't connect to wifi network after iOS update

    Can't connect to wifi network after iOS update.

    This does not work in my case.
    Situation: we have wifi at home using WPA encryption.
    The iPod Touch 8GB connected seamless to this network and anything was ok. After some days i could no longer connect, the iPod told me "connection to network 'networkname here' failed". Deleting the network and reenter the (correct) passphrase was no help, but changing the SSID on the router was helpful: the iPod could connect again ... for several days.
    Now things stopped working again. Resetting network settings did not help either.
    The iPod can see the network, is asking me for the passphrase and after several seconds telling me: can't connect. On the router log i don't even see a dhcp request, but other laptops work fine with the same wifi network.
    That's a mess, i cannot and will not change the SSID every some days just to get the iPod working again.

    Any news on ios 8.0.3 update? Been waiting for it coz of my slow wifi connection after i updated my iphone 5s to ios 8.

    I have heard rumours of an 8.1 update for developers. I just found another bug in 10.9.5. I am beginning to think that nobody should touch any update from Apple until they can get their very serious Q/A problems sorted out. This is getting bad.

  • Internet not connecting after ios 7.0.2 update on iphone 5

    Internet not connecting after ios 7.0.2 update on iphone 5

    Hi there PompasJr,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Camera isn't functioning
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash (iPhone 4 only); try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center. Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. After recording begins, you cannot readjust focus until you stop recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll. Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    -Griff W.

  • How I got my WIFI back after 10.5.8 update

    Hi, I too lost my WIFI connection after updating to 10.5.8.
    After trying a lot of things (resetting PRAM, SMC...) I managed to get my connection back doing the steps below:
    1) Delete preferences in /Library/Preferences (com.apple.network.identification.plist, com.apple.airport.preferences.plist & NetworkInterfaces.plist)
    2) Delete preference com.apple.networkConnect in ~/Library/Preferences
    3) Restart computer
    Note: after restart you will lose all of your network configurations
    Important: if your router has its SSID hidden, make it visible (mine was hidden and it didn't work)
    4) Look for available networks. Luckly, you'll find your router's SSID. Connect, enter password, etc.
    5) After checking everything's ok, you can revert your SSID to hidden (I did and it's still working)
    Repeat step 4 for every WIFI you want to connect.
    Hope this helps you people!

    Had issues with my WiFi router too, after upgrading my MacBook Pro 13" to 10.5.8. Not sure we're talking about the same issues, but my MacBook connected to my WiFi network, had also a IP address, but couldn't connect to any host, nor on the local network neither outside.
    After reading your post I tried to remove the network completely from the list of known networks and to set it up from scratch. Seems it works now...
    Thanks,
    Thomas
