Dear everyone having issues with the iOS 6.01 wifi problem with iphone 4s.
Please followt he following steps.
1) login to your router and disable SSID broadcast ( this will stop your router from broadcasting it's name)
2) change the security type to WPA
3) in the routers MAC Table [ sometimes found in the access rule section] add the mac address of your iphone WIFI Mac address.
( go to settings>About> WI-FI Address. there you will see you WIFI MAc address)
4) go to settings on your iphone>wifi> on> tap the field labelled other> type in the broadcast name of your router> security>WPA>save. and your good to go. have tested this with iphone 4s with Verizon and Sprint service.
Have turned the phones on and off and have no problems. Please post back if it works the same with T-Mobile and AT&T

Hi nope only got bis activated
BIS = BlackBerry Data Plan. You should be ok then.
Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.
Now, try your WiFi connection again.

TS1559 my wifi wont turn on, stays grey.Rebooted,restarted, restored.. any suggestions

My wifi will not turn on, stays grey. Rebooted,restored and restarted. Any suggestions?

Everything in that article is prior to restoring as new. If the OP has already restored as new, none of the steps in that article will really matter. This is a known issue in a small percentage of iPhones.
Also, the OP linked to this forum FROM that article you quoted. However, in the future, if the OP has not tried anything, and hasn't linked from that article, definitely refer them to that article.

TS1559 Wifi is off (grey) reloaded software but still say off. Pls help???

It seems after loading the lastest software OS on my IPAD3 the Wifi will not work.   It has stayed GREY OFF and can't sync to wifi.   My wifes IPAD2 does but not my IPAD3 since I did the update (it seems).    Any help please, this thing is driving me crazy.

Some things to try first:
1. 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.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. 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
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Hi luke_curve8520,
As Ron say about data service in other carrier. You need a data plan in order to use wifi.
OMG I didn't say that. Sorry for iansantos' post. We're not talking about mobile data plan here, we're talking about wifi connectivity.
luke_curve8520 - if you're not getting this screen, it means you're not connected.

Wifi wont stay on

Is your wireless connection dropping or when you say "wifi wont stay on" do you mean that your wifi connection just completely goes away for periods of time? You may want to contact AT&T by calling them at 1-800-288-2020 and requesting a new gateway if your wireless continues to go away.

First, try powering your iPad off, then turn it back on. Second, plug your iPad into your computer and sync it with iTunes. This will make sure you are up to date and can often resolve quirky issues like you are experiencing.

My IPad screen is grey even after I tried pressing the sleep and home button for reboot but turns out it stays grey.

You can try to reboot a few more times. If it doesn't come back and you normally sync to a computer, hook it up and see if the 'guts' are working even if the screen isn't.
Beyond that you should make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check it out.

TS3676 Why does MacBookPro screen stay grey while gear disc keeps spinning endlessly?

MacBook Pro would not shut down using the shut down mode. Had to do it manually. When I tried to boot it up again, the screen stays grey with Apple icon displyed while gear disc keeps spinning endlessly. Have had to shut it down manually and then tried to boot it up again to no avail.
Any suggestions?

Hello! Try running fsck. It runs the same repair routine that disk utility does. I do recommend that you have a set of install disks or at least a bootable clone of your hard drive. If fsck doesn't repair the disk then disk utility on the install disc probably wouldn't either. The next alternative is DiskWarrior. Tom
fsck
Startup holding down the apple key AND the "S" key
You'll start up into a command line interface.. it'll look strange but just hang in there.
When it's done booting up, you should see something that looks like this:
localhost:/ root#
at this point, type in 'fsck -f" please note the space before the dash, and of course, ignore the quote marks, then hit return
You computer will no go thru some low level checks on your HD. Most likely you'll get a list of a few files that have problems and this procedure will fix them.
This should take about 2 or 3 mins, so don't be in a rush.
When the line says "VOLUME WAS MODIFIED", this means that changes were made.
At this point you should be back at the same
localhost:/ root# prompt.
run fsck -f again.
Wait for it to finish.
if you continue to get the "Volume was modified" message,
continue to run fsck -f until you'll get a prompt that says
The Volume(your HD) appears to be ok,
again with the localhost:/ root# prompt.
AT this point, type reboot, hit enter and your computer will start up normally.
