TS1398 why has my 4s wifi slide button greyed out and won't let me turn wifi on?

My 4s will not connect to wifi anymore. Completely randomly after an overnight charge I think, the wifi slide button is locked at off and will not let me turn it on.

Settings App > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. See if fixed. If not, Restore iPhone with iTunes on your computer. See if fixed. If not, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send iPhone to Apple for resolution.

If the steps in the article TJBUSMC1973 linked didn't resolve your issue, then the next step would be to have your phone serviced at an Apple store. Good luck

TS1398 I don't have the option of turning it on. The wifi option is on off and won't let me turn it on. What can I do? My other iPhones are on wifi.

I can't get on my wifi. The settings-wifi option won't let me turn the wifi option on. My other devices are on wifi. What can I do to hook up to wifi?

TS1398 My Wifi has completely gone, the option on the slider is greyed out, and the slider won't slide. Tried all the fixes on the forums, (except the fridge/frezzer method), none work. Grrrrr!

This has been an issue since installing new IOS! How long will it take apple to come up with a fix. My carrier offered me an early upgarde at a massively inflated monthly cost (how kind of them!).

well, you know how it is - glitches that usually resolve with a hard reset etc
then a restore. then a factory restore....then ..... nothing fixes so I try the next step with apple online - fill out my serial number and find it is a couple of weeks out of date - and then with the holidays who has time to get to the apple store? this is my second 4s handset as it is - first one the glass cracked from L to R without any impact/damage etc - they changed it out automatically because it's a 'known fault' apparently - so technically, this handset is only 6 months old - but warranty is from original purchase date -
never imagined it would turn out to be a warranty issue with the phone - and hey maybe when I get a chance to go to the apple store they'll be sympathetic, but I won't be able to get there till at least Jan 4th as it is. On the other hand, another iOS update might resolve the issue - but how long till that release? at the moment I'm having to use my old 3gs for wifi and 4s for phone!!!

TS4009 I have followed the steps above but when I get to the screen to select a downgraded option, the Done button is grayed out and won't let me select a new option. I see a lock up in top right-hand corner, but not sure how to unlock it.

I have followed the steps above for downgrading iCloud storage options, but when I get to the screen to select a downgraded option, the Done button is grayed out and won't let me select a new option. I see a lock in top right-hand corner, but not sure where to go to unlock it.

Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then click the iCloud icon.

Click Downgrade Options.
Enter your Apple ID password, then click Manage.
Choose your current plan, then click Done.

Wifi button greyed out and I have updated to ios 7.0.4

I have a 4S using ios 7.0.4 software and my wifi button is greyed out and my phone is not connecting to any known wifi connections. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I have gone through the router reset for home network, Router reset at work. Restarted my personal hotspot on my iPhone that is running the same IOS.
I have performed the Network settings reset on the iPad.
I have performed a hard reboot on the iPad, (Home button and power button until logo appears)
Also I had to update the Apple driver on my laptop for iTunes to see my iPad after I had updated iTunes, I'm not sure if I lost wifi after I updated the iPad IOS or updating iTunes.

If these don't work you may have a hardware problem. Visit an Apple store for an evaluation or contact Apple Support.

My wifi is greyed out and won't go on.

Why is my wifi greyed out and I can't turn it on. I tried turning off my phone and it didn't work.

Does that mean I have to get a new phone because I am passed my warranty I have had my phone 1 year and three months. This seems to be the software updates problem and I don't understand why I have to pay for a new phone, this is stupid. If I would of known about this problem I wouldn't of done the update. And to think I thought Apple was good.
