TS1398 iPhones drop wifi even with full strength signal.

I am running ios 6.0.1 I have a Duel band wifi 2.4 and 5. Iphones drop wifi regularly. I can get back on wifi by going to settings, shut off wifi then turn it back on. But that is not the point. Why does it drop? iPads connected on the 5 band work fine. . All was fine with iOS 5. Does any one know why? The fix??

I can relate to this problem but with a twist. I bought 2 (32gig) ipod touches last week and have a strange problem with the wif fi dropping out. One of the ipod's works perfectly with great range and little drop out, the other identical ipod touch continuously drops the wireless signal and I keep having to log on constantly, which is a real pain as I am using the ipod for home automation and media control. Wondering whether to take it back for replacement. Has anyone any ideas here please ?

Iphone 5 wont connect to the internet even with full 3G signal

Basically I bought a brand new iphone 5 and I'm already having problems with it. I have transferred my old number over from my old sim card as I used to be on 02 and have transfered to T- Mobile so I gave them my PAC code and it's all in process and they said it would be done but the 1st October which is fine but in the mean time i still want to use my phone and all the benefits that come with it but i at the moment I cant even connect to the internet. I have full signal so full 3g everywhere I go but I still can't connect to the internet. I have already rung up T-mobile and got them to sort it out for me and they patched me through to Apple who said they could sort it out for me by turning my phone off and on again but still I had no internet. Even now, the next day it still isn't working so I really don't know what to do. Has anyone got any suggestion on this? Do you think it's the phone company or could it be the phone?
Cheers

Have EXACTLY the same issue thePOPEofDOPE420, tried the setting> general> reset> reset network setting suggestion - but this does nothing. Still the issue persists.
WiFi - internet works great. As soon as it's off, status bars showing a full signal, 3G but the web page/Facebook app/App Store just hangs and won't load.
Not sure who to contact - T-Mobile or Apple?

4S usage % drops quickly even with all apps closed. What is normal?

4S IPhone. Usage % drops quickly even with all apps closed. What is normal?

It depends on your carrier and signal strength, usage patterns, wifi connectivity, apps used every day.
Low signal on CDMA networks will drain the battery within 5 hours.
Full signal on CDMA + LTE will allow up to ~17 hours of runtime
Who is your carrier? (and signal strength)
What is your usage pattern?
When do you notice the battery dropping?

Yes, the iPhone 5S is a global phone. However, Sprint will only unlock phones for use on GSM networks outside of the U.S. In the U.S., that phone can only be used on Sprint's network.

My iphone 5 turns itself off even with full charge

My iPhone 5 turns itself off even with a full charge. Any help would be appreciated.

That's a very strange issue, but at the moment it could be software or hardware - the only way to find out is by restoring the iPhone.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 has all the information you need to backup and restore the iPhone.
If it's a software issue, it'll be completely fixed by restoring the iPhone!
If it's hardware, the same thing will still happen even after restoring, and you'll want to get the iPhone serviced.

Iphone dropping wifi then reconnects while on skype or viber but not netflix

while on call in skype or viber at home, my iphone 4 would drop the VOIP call, wifi icon immediately switches back to 3G then after 2 seconds switches back to wifi again(I never have to go connect again manually, it always comes back by itself). All happens without any intervention, and once the wifi icon comes back i can dial skype call again. This could happen 3 or 4 times on a 30 mins skype/viber call.
I have a 1st gen 3G iPad as well and I use it to watch movies on netflix, it has never dropped the wifi like that even after watching movies for more than an hour. Its just very strange. I've search around the internet and people who have iphone wifi drop problems always have to go reconnect to wifi manually or restart the phone to connect, which is not my case. I've also tried resetting the network settings on the iphone, didn't help.
I have 2 PCs, a Macbook pro, and a PS3, all using the same wifi connection, and like the ipad none of them have any problems with the wifi at all (not all connected a the same time, i usually have the MBP and the 2 iOS devices connected at all times). And for the iPhone, the wifi drop seems to isolate to Skype and Viber calls only. Anyone have any idea how to fix this? by the way, i have never tried VOIP call on other wifi networks other than my house, so I don't know if this is because something is wrong with my equipment at home. VOIP call on 3G network when wifi is not available doesn't have any problem.
I have a AT&T iphone4 on 4.3.2, wifi is through a Linksys router (g i think), I'm also using an AT&T microcell that 70% of the time doesn't even show up on my iphone. Thanks!

I have the same issue with my Iphone4, never had this with my Iphone 3gs. I have tried a different router (I have a d-link and a netgear) and no difference. I read on another forum that bluetooth might interfere. Yesterday I ran a test and after I turn bluetooth off I did not have any dropped Skype calls. before this my Skype call would drop or I would have a really bad connection about 8min or so into the call. I think this is because the iphone will start up bluetooth and it interferes with wifi. I am not 100% sure this cures the problem but it might.

TC drops wifi connection with hidden SSID on restart/logout?

All in all I'm new to the Mac family as of January and have only one complaint...holds true to the Airport functionality in Leopard. I experienced the Airport/2Wire DSL gateway dropping wifi signal I found plenty of on the support forums.
I figured buying the TC would solve the problem yet it still is a problem if I hide the SSID? My XP PC connects fine whether hidden or broadcast, in fact I had an easier time connecting and using TC via my work PC then with my MBP? I see and connect via wifi no problems in XP parallels or my work PC, hard drive connects as well. Yet as soon as I hide the SSID after I get my MBP connected, when I logout or restart I can not find or even search for the network. I have to enable/broadcast again to get the MBP to connect. Once I hide it I'm still good until I restart or logout of any of the accounts?

Hello:
I just purchased a new Motorola DROID 2 Global, and am having difficulty connecting it to my home WiFi network. My router is a DLINK 655 router, which I have set to 802.11n only with WPA2 encryption and I do not broadcast the SSID. I have gone through the setup process on the DROID 2 by entering the SSID on the phone providing my password etc. The phone keeps attempting to connect to the WiFi network, but just cannot do so. I have a Lenovo laptop which has no problem connecting to the network at the same time, and I have connect it many times.
If I change the router setting to broadcast the SSID, the phone will connect. But as soon as I hide it again, the connection will drop. The saved network setting on the phone will show "Not in range" even though I am standing right next to the router, and the phone connected to it just a minute ago when the SSID was being broadcast.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a solution to this problem or is this a known limitation of the phone?
A soft reset may resolve your WiFi connectivity concerns. Please remove the battery from your phone while is ON. Re-insert battery after 10 seconds. Power phone ON and allow it to register applications.

9300 turns off even with full battery

Hi, I hope somebody can help me... Long story here...
I bought my 9300 in Istanbul, where I live. I have a Vodafone Turkey simcard and Vodafone Spain simcard. I swithch simcards when I travel, works beautifully, even with email and whatsapp.
Last year I had an issue whith battery draining in less than 2 hours every morning. After reinstalling software and getting rid of all apps (incl whatsapp) it eventually came back to life and the battery started lasting for 2 days again. I must say I did the upgrade of OS while in Spain (I don't know if it makes a difference...)
A couple of weeks ago (now I am in Istanbul), same thing happened. It is just that this time the battery doesn't drain, the phone just shuts itself off, normally in the middle of a conversation or trying to send a whatsapp, and with full battery.
The first few times, taking the battery off and sim and putting it back in did the trick. After a couple of times, however, it is not working anymore. This it what happens:
BB turns off completely.
If I try to turn on, it does not even try.
If I remove battery and simcard, it restarts and is ok in all processes but when it is looking for network signal, it turns off again.
I remove battery and simcard second time, and it does not go through the software verification, it turns off again.
After this, the only way to bring it back to life is to plug it in, and then it restarts and with full battery!! I unplug and I can use email for the next 3-4 hours, until some hours later, same problem all again. I carry my charger everywhere!
I have the latest OS available, and I have got rid of whatsapp, which last year I think it was the beginning of the solving of the problem (whatsapp releases new versions constantly, I think upgrading it did the trick. Or was it just chance?), but it is still not helping so far.
My husband has the same model, never a problem. We exchanged the batteries, no luck either.
Any ideas?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
There are many things already posted in this thread...have you yet read and attempted any of them?
You also may want to attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
But, if the behavior continues, you may need to consider more drastic actions -- e.g., WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload, "bare bones" OS loading, etc.
Do also keep in mind that, if the problem is at a hardware level, then no amount of self-diagnosis nor internet-distance recommendations will be of any use...only in-hand evaluation by a qualified hardware technician can properly diagnose a hardware problem.
Good luck and let us know!

Computer shuts down on its own even with full battery life.

I purchased a new battery for my 13 inch aluminum MacBook. Installation was fine and dandy but even with a full charge, if I don't have my power adapter connected, the computer will shut down on its own without warning. Is there a fix for this?

Have you reset the SMC?

ITOUCH SHUTTING DOWN EVEN WITH FULL BATTERY

EVEN WITH A FULL BATTERY CHARGE, MY ITOUCH 2nd GEN. SHUTS DOWN TO APPLE ICON MODE AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS UNLESS IT'S PLUGGED INTO A POWER SOURCE. THIS STARTED A FEW MONTHS AGO. WHAT GIVES? I'M ON V 2.2.1. - ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED! THANX

Here's the Apple article on how to reset the PMU:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449
Possibly this might fix the problem. If not, here's a link to the MBP battery program:
http://www.apple.com/support/macbook_macbookpro/batteryupdate/
This program does NOT apply to your battery, but I think you may recognize some of the symptoms that yours is exhibiting. It also sounds like your power adapter may be getting warmer than it should, but that could have to do with the battery being defective. But if less than a year old, the power adapter should also be under its own warranty period.
If you have access to an Apple Store, you could make an appointment with the genius bar. They should be able to evaluate both the battery and the power adaptor by swapping yours out with ones that are known to be good. If not, call Apple.
Good luck!

iphone 5s wifi is **** slow since I updated it to ios 8.0.2
It isn't my router because my laptop and PC are fine.
my wifi is working fine even on Samsung Galaxy s3. I am able to stream movie on you tube on S3 but not on Iphone 5s.
even whats up messages take long to download on iphone 5s.
I have tried the following on the devices and nothing has changed!
Turn Wifi on and off
Forget Wifi network add again
Reset Network Settings
Erase all content and restore from iTunes backup
Erase all content and restore as a new device- it will not let me do this! It keeps saying service isn't available
Change the network type to WPA Personal or Mixed WPA2/WPA -PSK. Rebooted router.
I am frustrated beyond belief! I shouldn't even have to try all these things and I'm even more frustrated the only way I can use my devices is by pulling from my Verizon cellular hotspot and use my data!
This needs to get fixed ASAP!

Iphone 4s wifi sync with new computer?

I got a new computer and moved everything from itunes from the old computer and I no longer have the old computer. I now want to wifi sync with the new computer, but I can't get my iphone to recognize it. I have synced with the cable several times and I have sync over wifi selected in iTunes but on the iphone the old computer still shows up on the sync over wifi screen. Any suggestions on how to correct this?
