Unable to connect to home wifi if signal is 2bars or lower (iphone 5)

After updatin to ios 7 beta i ve been experiencing some problems with my phone, one of them was the wifi signal. I tried everything, downgrading upgrading to the official release, restoring etc... but anyways that issue still persists, i still cannot connect to my home network or any network if the signal is under 3bars. Any ideas how to fix this?
Thank you in advance
Cheers.

Hello gilleskar,
Thanks for your question! It sounds like the Wi-Fi on your phone is unreliable at 2 or fewer strength. I know you have updated from the Beta version of iOS to the newest public released and the issue has persisted. Based on that troubleshooting I would recommend these steps from the article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
There is also another section toward the bottom that I would try after this if you need to:
Wi-Fi disconnects or signal strength is less than expected
Move closer to the Wi-Fi router (access point).
Check for sources of potential interference.
Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if signal strength improves.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Regards,
Sterling

TS1398 Unable to connect to home wifi

I'm unable to connect to home wifi with iphone. My computer is able to connect as usual.

Buried deep in that link is a suggestion to turn the router off and on again to reboot it. This should be the FIRST thing you try, not the last. It will usually resolve the problem.

My iPad2(Wifi-16Gb) unable to connect to home wifi network after upgraded to iOS6. The said network is a remembered network and never face this connection issue before iOS6.

Forget and reconnect the netwrok doean't solve the problem.
Even Network Reset recommended in others iPad user in the forum can't help as well.
Please advice. Thanks.

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

Macbook Pro (13" mid 2010) unable to connect to home wifi?

Hi everyone
I have a Macbook pro 13" mid 2010. Up until recently, airport was able to connect to my home wifi. I have not changed anything on the home wifi network.
The laptop is on 10.6.8, with all software updates installed.
I have recently installed boot camp onto this laptop and did a software update. Could that be a problem?
Attempted solutions:
1 PRAM reset
2 Disabling IPv6
3 Reboot laptop and restart modem/router
4 Deleting all keychain networks and passwords
5 Deleting networks from Network Settings/Advanced Settings
6 Using Assist Me option
7 Changing home wifi network from WPA to WPA2
8 Changing home wifi broadcast channel to a less used channel
9 Connecting to another landline network (also did not work)
Surprisingly, I am able to connect to my mobile phone's wifi tether. My monthly data usage limit isn't very high and this isn't a real option.
Normally what happens, is I enter the password to join the wireless network and it'll give me a Connection timed out error message.
I have 5 other PCs in the house that can connect to the network, my MBP is the only mac and the only one that cannot connect. My android mobile phone can connect, my sister's iPhone 3GS can connect.
Can anyone help? Or suggest something I may have missed?

I have the same MBP Version 7.1 that you have and it also states in the System Profiler HDMI Display port
Output: Connection : Display. Now what that means, im not sure.
But i have also connected an HDMI cable via an adapter made by iWires Tech Link purchased at the Apple store and have the same problem as you, only video with no sound from the TV.
I've looked at the settings that eww has suggested in System Preferences > Sound > Output tab and their is no options available for HDMI out, or Display Audio or anything else for that matter, except built in speakers, and Audio port for sound output.
Which lead me to use the Audio port to send the sound out via an amp and speaker system independent to the TV.
Thats why i researched for the other adapters which send out the sound and the audio through the same adapter.

IPhone will not connect to home WiFi

new iPhone 4 6.0 will not connect to home wifi--other apple products (iPad & other iPhone 4) will connect to home WiFi--I experienced this problem with first iPhone 4 received 11/13--got new phone 11/26 and STILL can not connect

Is this a password protected network? Go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset Network Settings. After that, try to connect again. This reset will remove all password and wifi information from the device and should give you a clean start to connect to the home network.

Hi, I was working at home with my iPad, everything was going well. It went out battery and after this I am unable to connect to the wifi at home. Before getting out battery no problem, and now it sees the router signal but it is unable to connect to it.

Unable to connect Z10 to WIFI 2WIRE MODEM 2710HGV White color modem

Hi, I bought Z10 on 30th March 2013 with great enthusiasm. That enthusiasm didn't last as I was unable to connect to the WIFI with the   WIFI 2WIRE MODEM 2710HGV. I took the help of my service provider but couldn't solve the problem. Yesterday I went to the service provider STARHUB and they were able to connect to the internet via their server. Then I went to the BLACKBERRY expert center at the CATHAY, there also they were able to connect to their server. I have done the basic things like inputting the correct password etc. I even tried setting the home network ID on my z10 but that didn't help. Where can I go wrong?. It
Please help to resolve this problem . Thanks.

I have no idea how to send private message but here is the log.

My ipad wont accept any passwords, i am unable to connect to my wifi even though my password is correct and other laptops etc have no problem connecting.

my ipad wont accept any passwords, i am unable to connect to my wifi even though my password is correct and other laptops etc have no problem connecting.
The ipad can find my wifi connection but just wont accept the password. connected with no problem in the Apple store.
any suggestions,
thanks.

Does the iPad connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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.
- Power off and then back on the router

- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:

- 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.

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.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. 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.

It's hard to provide help when your question starts out with, "I tried all solutions" however here is some troubleshooting advice.
If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
First, test your iPad on some other WiFi networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. You could try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings to see if that corrects the problem. If not, contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.
