Why is my wifi slider greyed out on the iPhone 4s?

It's been messing up for 3 weeks now, and I'm getting real ******. I cannot adjust my wifi settings to on. It's stuck on the off (greyed out) position.

See if this helps

if not, it is a hardware failure. Contact Genius bar for evaluation and possible replacement.

Why is my WIFI option greyed out!? 4S

Last week I had my iPhone 4S replaced because my wifi option greyed out and the battery life started to drain really fast. 8 days later it's the exact same problem. What's happening here? I bought the phone 11 months ago!!! Up to date software, reset network settings. I have spoke with several other people with the same problem. I expected more from an expensive apple product...
Please help me Apple! Thanks

Your replacement should have a minimum of a 90 day warranty, if replaced by Apple.
If you've followed all of the steps in the troubleshooting article, and your replacement device is still having wi-fi greyed out, then get the device replaced.

Why is my Wifi access greyed out?

I have been trying to help mom with her WiFi access on her Iphone 4s. It used to work fine. Now all of a sudden the Wifi access is greyed out so she cannot get Wifi. This is a huge problem because we FaceTime to see each other and now we can't.
She took it into the Apple store and was told she would need to pay $200 to have it replaced because they can't repair it; I've been on line and noticed there were thousands of complaints about this issue so I'm wondering why it can't be fixed. Is it a problem with the hardware and if so why won't Apple fix it?
Has anyone else experienced this issue and were you able to resolve it?
Thanks

Additional Information
If you are still unable to turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options.
If no change after following the troubleshooting steps included with the link provided including restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem. Apparently this has been confirmed at the Apple Store and if the iPhone remained under warranty it would have been exchanged under warranty at no charge.

Why is my wifi symbol greyed out?

Hi,
As the title suggests - my wifi symbol is greyed out (as it used to look when no wifi was available). However - my wifi is working well (I'm on it now!).
I've done a bit of searching, and the closest problem I can see to this is when people have an exclamation mark on their wifi symbol. However - this isn't the problem I'm having.
Does anyone have any idea?
Thanks.

When I click on the symbol, all available networks are displayed. I can click on another network and connect that that fine too. Often, when I swap around wifi networks, the symbol becomes 'blacked out', as I'd expect, rather than greyed out.
When I click on System Preferences - Network, I see a green light with connected underneath.
Typically - yes, the symbol is greyed ouf from when I start the computer.
I hope this helps.

Why is my speed slider greyed out?

Im not sure what version of iMovie i have. its the one with the purple icon.
I have several clips I'm putting together and want to slow some down. However the rabbit icon is greyed out. I have gone into prefs and made sure the slow motion option is checked but that hasn't helped.
Please help this is driving me cuckoo.

Why Apple is silent about 4s wifi getting greyed out and not responding to this issue? many ppl suffer from this and this is absurd!

Why Apple is silent about iPhone 4s wifi getting greyed out with iOS updates 8.0.2 and 8.1 and did not respond to this issue officially? Many people are suffering from this affected service. How can you trust us to buy new iPhones when you stop supporting us with the ones we have since they are still upgradable to the latest iOS.
Is there any chance that we will be given the support and would this issue be fixed with any upcoming updates? My iPhone when its battery is drained totally and I start it again the WIFI works until I try to choose another network or somehow I disable it then blackout!
This is definitely a software issue that we never had problems before this update.
Show us that you care for your products at least and provide us with a solution please.

That doesn't help at all.. I can only have it enabled if the battery gets drained out totally then when I restart it the WIF is on. then back greyed out.. that is not a serious reply, really!
Yes, it's a serious reply. Did you actually read the information at the link I posted? Especially the last sentence? The fact that it appeared when you updated to iOS 8 has no bearing on the validity of the article. It is not specific to any version.

WiFi Was Greyed out

My iPhone's WiFi was working great on iOS 6.0.1 till 13th Feb'13 no problems whatsoever, until yesterday it failed over night without me knowing. The WiFi option was still available but unable to connect to my home network and when I rebooted the phone, the WiFI was greyed out. It has not been working since.
Somehow i manageed to install 6.1.1 and i thought it may fix the problem but same problem...the WiFI is still greyed out. I do not understand why it has failed. I bought this 4S in July and have never dropped it .The WiFi was working great till yesterday and suddently this happened. I won't understand what kind of application/phone Apps have released. Its seem they are just want to stay in the market instead giving a good service to their customer.
I have reseted the network settings, restored the phone and even tried using the phone as new and this has still not fixed the problem.
Never expect such kind of phone from a company like Apple.

It takes two to Tango. But it was technically a Software Error in the boot sequence, but the Hardware is actively reading the boot information and has to respond accordingly. Sounds like it was a one time glitch. Keep an eye on it. You iPhone still has full Warranty.

My iPad 2 3g wifi is greyed out. Bluetooth connection and celluar work great. wifi address N/A...

Wow... I've researched so much about this topic.
The story is, the ipad was on top on a car and it fell off while driving down the road. The driver realized what happened, but it was to late. Several 18 wheelers were behind him and it was TOAST!   Luckily he turned it on and it worked!   So, he asks me to fix it.
I replace the shattered screen and everything was great! Except the wifi was greyed out... I did almost everything from hard reset, to updates, to reformat it etc.
No luck...   then I bought 2 new wifi replacements and no luck... except when I installed the first wifi replacement, it worked! I connected it to my wireless at home and left for a little bit then came back and it wasn't working! I've tried everything... reconnected it to the chip onboard...
So, I decided to take it apart again and install the 2nd wifi antenna i bought, still no luck.
Not sure... maybe the wireless chip it connects to is bad.
Just wondering why the bluetooth is working and the wireless isn't...
Thanks for any help!!!

LISTEN EVERYONE WHO HAS PROBLEMS WITH WIFI WHEN UPDATING iOS6
If your wifi is greyed out:
you need to go to the apple store. You're wifi chip has expired! Wifi chip experation dates were checked upon the new software, that is why some iPhones still work and others don't. They will replace it for you free of charge (don't quote me on this). It was free for me.
I myself have an iPhone4S and they told me exactly this.

I have a iphone 4s. Recently the wifi greyed out when i was on ios 7.0.4 and itunes said to update the phone to ios 8.0.2 to solve the problem. Today i did it and still wifi is greyed out. In the "About" under Settings, it shows N/A infront of wifi

i have an iphone 4s. Recently the wifi settings greyed out when i was using ios 7.0.4. When i connected it to itunes, it showed that update your iphone. At an apple forum they said that updating will solve this problem. I just updated it to 8.0.2 but still wifi is greyed out. In settings>general>about, there is an option of wifi address which shows N/A. What is the problem? Is is the hardware? Kindly guide me.

There are many threads on this forum about this issue. Do a forum search for "wi-fi greyed out" and see if any of the solutions therein will work for you. Best of luck.

How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

TS1559 I have done all of the steps that Apple have said to do, including completely restarting my phone and registering it as a new one, but still my wifi is greyed out, can anyone help me?
