WiFi on iPhone 5S 7.0.6 keeps dropping WiFi then not reconnecting

This is my third iPhone, had a 3GS, 4S and now this 5S. While I love my iPhone it is always dropping my WiFi connection at home. I have a Retina Macbook Pro which has zero problems, there's also two 4S's, a 5C and three iPads all connecting no problem. Well the iPad Mini has now started having problems recently.
I find my connection has dropped and now is on very slow cellular. I go to WiFi in settings and click on my home network (extremely fast fibre). When I click on it the iPhone asks for my WiFi password. So I enter my password for the hundredth time and it just doesn't connect.
I have to spend ages turning my iPhone and router off and on again. This has been going on since I got the phone in December.
I am a seriously unhappy customer here Apple, I've spent thousands of pounds on your products and this is unacceptable, feels like a downgrade compared to my 4S which never set a foot wrong. I imagine it's related to iOS 7 than the hardware.
I have seen others have had this issue and want an answer, I'm really hope iOS 7.1 fixes this, there's so many little bugs and inconsistancies with this OS, feels unpolished.
WPA2 secured, 2.4GHz in a quiet rural area with next to no interfearance.

Same problem with iPad3 wifi+cellular. Since iOs 7.0.6 the wifi on the device became unusable. Immediately after implementing this crap update, wifi connection keeps dropping in every 2 minutes.  I tried to reset the device twice, even restore network settings, but doesn't help. All other devices have the same stable connection at home, than before. The problem is the IOS 7.0.6 update! This is ridiculous! Quality is significantly dropped since ios 5.1.1. The head of this developer department must be fired out! Now I cannot use my wifi at all!

  • Why does my iphone 4 keep dropping wifi connection since ios5.0.1update

    Why does my iphone 4 keep dropping wifi connection since ios5.0.1 update, it worked perfectly before, my wifes 3gs connects fine and stays connected while my £400 paperweight losses connection, thinking of going back to nokia! Sort it out apple!

    If the "oh so Great Apple" were to monitor these forums then they might see all the problems
    that the people who have paid good money for their devices are having, i suppose they can do no wrong
    In your eyes, i just thought that if you pay a lot of money for a product that works fine, and you update
    It with a firmware update that they kept going on about how good it was and it can do this and it can
    Do that, then i think they should sort it out. I don't care if i "don't deserve to be an apple owner" or not,
    The fact is i paid my money and it should do what its suppose to do, i moved from Nokia to Apple because
    The N97 was crap and i put up with it for too long, and they didn't do anything to fix the bugs they just stopped
    Selling it and basically said tough s**t, so now this is happened i hoped Apple whould be better but they seem
    To be just like the rest.

    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.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • My mac mini keeps dropping wifi connectivity

    Hi Folks,
          My new Mini keeps dropping wifi connectivity so I lose the connection to Apple TV and even just browsing on Safari seems painful hoping a page will load before losing connectivity. I reset my router, restart the mini and it intermittently keeps happening. Has anyone come up with a workable solution?

  • I have the new iOS 6.1.2 on my iPad.  My wifi connects to my home network but keeps dropping it and won't reconnect.  Did not have this problem with previous iOS.

    I have the new iOS 6.1.2 on my iPad.  My wifi connects to my home network but keeps dropping it and won't reconnect.  Did not have this problem with previous iOS.  Apple, you have a quality assurance issue.  Don't be like Microsoft where they send out pieces of junk with testing it.

    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
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - 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.

    You shouldn't have bought any.

  • My ipod touch 8gb 3rd generation keeps dropping wifi.  I hate to reset since i've downloaded all of my itunes directly to my ipod.  Help!

    My ipod touch 8gb 3rd generation keeps dropping wifi.  Doesn't matter where I am - happend ALL the time.  Almost useless now except for all of my songs!   We don't have any other problems with other computers in our house.  I have downloaded all of my songs from itunes directly to my ipod (I know, I wish I hadn't) so I hate to reset or I will lose them all.  I have never downloaded any updates (I know, I know!) so could this be my problem? How do I find downloads and what do I need?  Please help if you can!

    The reset may help with the WiFi issue, but you'll have to do the reset to be sure. It does seem to cure a wide variety of issues. At some point you should be connecting the iPod to your computer/iTunes account, otherwise you risk losing all of your music and other content if you have a problem with your iPod.

  • HT1349 my macbook pro 13" retina keeps dropping wifi connection

    I'M using airport to connect this macbook pro retina to via wifi to the internet with excellent signal.

If you click on wifi indicator, it says "looking for signal" & then "on", its happening for about 2 months. My other devices (iphone & ipad dont have any isssues & work 100% via wifi from the same airport.

    If the troubleshooting suggestions here don't help you, and if your other devices work 100% when they are at exactly the same location as gives problems with your MBP, it sounds to me like a hardware problem with your MBP.
    For hardware problems, contact Apple or your Apple Authorized Service Provider for help.

  • Macbook Pro 2103 Keeps Dropping Wifi Everywhere

    Hi! I have a 2013 Macbook Pro, OSX 10.9.4, that keeps dropping the wifi connection after minutes of nonuse.  If I don't use it for two minutes, it drops.  It does this no matter where I am, or whose wifi I am using.  I tried changing channels on my router (which is a Netgear, one year old) which did nothing--but, as I said, it does this everywhere.  Any ideas? Help!

  • TS3623 Apple TV 5.1.2 update, WiFi issues?  Keeps dropping wifi, constant buffering?

    Apple TV 5.1.2 update constantly drops wifi connection, buffers and hangs?  Very Annoying!

    I am not sure that this will help you but i let you know how i solve it:
    Problem: iPhone 4 doesn't detect wi-fi networks after installed iOS 5.1
    My iPhone stopped finding any network once i update it with iOS 5.1, so after read so many posts
    around the web about it, and as i really need a wi-fi connection on a daily basis i did the following:
    First step:
    Reboot
    Reset Network Settings
    Turn Airplane mode On and Off
    None of this steps worked for me
    Second Step
    Restore iPhone to factory settings, not from backup.
    The iPhone detected wifi networks, but once i connected to one of them, after 1 minute
    or two, he lost the connection and stop seeing any wi-fi networks again.
    Third step
    New restore from factory settings, not from backup.
    The iPhone detected again the wifi networks, but this time instead of choosing from the list
    of wifi networks, i choose to click on "other.." and insert the name of the wifi network and password
    manually.
    I went to turn off bluetooth as well, since i heard on the web that the bluetooth connection ON, will mess with the wifi on iOS 5.1.
    No any problems until now, after 3 days of this procedure.
    Probably there is a problem when the iPhone connects to the first wifi network we choose, and the drops everything. But once i make it like i mention on the third step, no more problems.
