TS1398 WiFi not even on or able to be selected in Settings

I have a few devices connect in my household for Wifi.  I even have two identical iPhones that were working perfectly until a few days ago.  One that has no problems and then mine that has a few.  I am unable now to connected to my home Wifi.  Opening up Settings, the Wi-Fi option is greyed out and is unable to be selected.  It states No Wi-Fi.  I've tried other common quick fixes and nothing seems to work.  Rebooting phone, Resetting Network settings, Resetting All Settings, Turning on and off Airplane Mode, going into Cellular Data and turning it On and Off, nothing seems to work.  Any other users having the same problem?  Any suggestions?

  • IPod touch 4g randomly stopped picking up wifi? Restored and everything but continues to not pick up any wifi, not even my home network that I've been using since I got it, two years ago.

    It usually connects automatically, but as of two days ago, it hasn't been, not even when I enter it manually. I restored it, which in return updated it to iOS 6.0, but it still isn't picking up any wifi.

    This problem?

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • TS1398 Wifi not responding after the software update. restored the system but still no luck.

    After I updated the software, the wi-fi has stopped working. I have already restored the system but the problem remains. Wifi is working fine otherwise.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. 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.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    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
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • TS1398 wifi not working on phone

    I turned off my wifi and now it won't let me turn it back on. the slider bad is grayed out and frozen.  it also won't connect to the computer/mac, itunes does not recognize it as a device.  tried resetting network settings but that didn't do anything.  I don't want to reset the device totally or else I will lose things that I was not able to import.

    Yes, you have a corrupt backup.  Restore your phone as new, as you've done, and set it up again without using backup.

  • TS1398 WIFI not connecting.

    Iphone 6 does not automatically connect to known (used before) Wifi when coming back to a location like my former iphones did. It defaults to 4G.

    Go to your Settings > Wifi > click on the blue arrow beside the Wifi network and tap "Forget network"
    go back to settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Power your phone off then on.
    once you are back up select the wifi network you want and then enter the password correctly. You should be fine now.

    My brother and I phone number is link together on the same iTunes and Icloud therefore I am getting all his text messages on my phone, how do I stop this? He does not even have an Iphone anymore.

    Try going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".   If that doesn't work, you'll have to tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different Apple ID for iMessage.

  • Icloud backup - my ipad is hung with the dialogue box saying "this iPad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks. Backup happen when this iPad is plugged in locked and connected to WiFi". Even after doing what is said, I am not able to do anything with the iPad -

    My ipad is hung with the dialogue box saying "this iPad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks. Backup happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked and connected to WiFi". Even after doing that, I am not able to do anything with the iPad - neither able to reboot nor able to get to the homescreen. The dialogue box doesn't go at all even after pressing OK a hundred times. I treid tacking the back up through itunes and through 3G conncetion but of no avail. Please help

    I too have been having this issue since about 12/14.  That is around the same time I got the Ipad for my kids.  I am unsure if it is related.  I have tried logging out of icloud/deleting it and trying again.  Removing most of the apps to sync.  I reset my router.  All of the attempts have produced zero results.  I will be anxiously watching this thread for some help.  Good luck to you also

  • 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?

  • TS1398 When I try to connect to the wifi it will not unlock. It will not even search for a network. I have reset the phone and reset the network. Any ideas.

    When I try to connect to the wifi it will not unlock. It will not even search for a network. I have reset the phone and reset the network. Any ideas.

    I Can do that for home but not at friends and work places, nobody else has any problem joining it!! I'm wondering if restoring factory settings will solve it but don't really want to do that as its a hassle to reinstall everything for it to not solve the problem!!

  • Ipod won't let me into wifi at all not even to select a network. It's been like this ever since I restored my Ipod 4g and it will not let me do anything, not even download music to my ipod, restoring it also lost all of my data

         I knew that I needed to update my Ipod (4th gen) but it randomly stopped using the wifi and when I would go into "wi-fi" under "settings" the loading wheel would not stop spinning yet there are 5 wi-fi networks around me. Then I turn my ipod off, then on again and when it turned on it had an icon that was the itunes logo and a usb cord and that was it.. so I plugged my ipod into my computer got onto Itunes and it said that I needed to restore my ipod. I knew that all my data would be lost but now I can't even go into the wifi settings to select a network... it has the wi-fi connection icon(the little arcs) then "Wi-Fi" then across the bar thing it says "No Wi-Fi" I don't understand.. I do have Wi-Fi or else I wouldn't be able to type this on a computer....
         How do I hook up the wifi network selections to my ipod???

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

    Then
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • TS1398 Iphone 5 Wifi not working

    Hi Apple .

Now it become more worst sometime i unable to turn on my wifi .... pls email me for solution . I purchase my iphone from Apple Store online from malaysia but currently im working at oversea . Can i get warranty at Taiwan ?

    The iPhone warranty is not international.  Apple will only honor the warranty in the country where the iPhone was sold.
    If your WiFi connections button in Settings is greyed out, see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559 and if you want to Troubleshoot, and can access the router, http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398 those may help but you probably need to have the iPhone tested by an Apple technician.
