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 iPod 3g said it had no songs, the wifi was greyed out, my videos wouldnt work,bluetooth wouldnt work, and apps crashed

So i'm travelling in Vietnam. Staying at this hotel, my ipod suddenly stopped being able to search for wifi, and constantly had the 'circle' indicating loading.. however my music and apps were still intact. However, i restarted my ipod, and when i turned it back on it said had no songs and no videos when i loaded Music, and when i tried using apps they showed the initial default screen of the app and then crashed. i tried connecting it to itunes, but itunes said it could not read the ipod, so it suggested i restore it. i googled solutions but none of them worked, and my music for itunes is scattered in my laptop and my computer back home. not being able to find solutions, i restored my ipod, and so now all my music is gone. i have to say im extremely disappointed with Apple for not giving solutions that work. im sure countless other people have this problem ( from what i read on forums, they do) . anyone had this problem and actually fixed it without restoring? i'd like to know for the future. thank you.

Exactly the same ranjan, I only went up to Sheffield on Monday from Nottingham (£15 Fuel) beacuse I had a fault with my previous 4s, To be fair they were as good as gold and swapped it there and then.
I have updatted like yourself and as of today my WIFI button has been grey all day, I have switched it on/off reset network settings and nothing.

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!!!

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.

I have an iPod touch 4th gen and it updated by itself to iOS6 without a wifi connection. When I unlocked it, it told me to connect to iTunes. So, I updated the software and when the update was finished, my wifi button was greyed out. I'm cant turn on wifi

My iPod updated by itself without a wifi connection. It told me to connect it to iTunes so I did and I updated the software and everything. After it was updated, my wifi button was greyed out and I don't know why. I sent it in to get fixed and the Apple store did NOTHING. I still have about 48 days left on my one year waranty and I don't know what to do to fix the problem. Please, does anyone know how to fix this issue without selling it or replacing it? I've tried all the troubleshooting techniques and nothing is working. Someone help.

Upgraded to iOS7 - WIFI still greyed out.. Any fixes?

I previously had the problem on the previous iOS 6.1.4 or whatever the most up to date was.
I've now upgraded to iOS7, reset network settings, reinstalled the operating system, full phone resets etc.
Unfortunately I STILL have the problem that my WIFI is greyed out!
I'm running an iPhone 4S by the way.
Can't believe for one minute, that after all the problems on the previous iOS that a fix hasn't been put in place - so if anyone knows of one, i'd really appreciate it.
That android devil is becoming more angelic!
I've also had my phone just over a year, so I assume that the warranty is now expired?? I know - i've had the problems for some time and I really should have got my arse into gear and took it in for repair before now!
Regards,
Andrew.

I guess I don't have to wait
I got it fixed
someone delete this post please

My wifi is greyed out on my iPhone 4S

My wifi is greyed out on my iPhone 4S and tried almost everything like putting it in the freezer and the hair drying method and draining the battery and restore my phone and I even contacted the Apple Store and they said I had to pay $19.99 to get it fixed but they dont guarantee that it will work. So I dont want to pay for something that they arent even sure about. I have been looking for a solution to this for weeks now and I dont want to keep using my cellular data and get charged for going over my limit! HELPPPPP!

It seems you contacted AppleCare who would have charged you a fee of $19.99 for troubleshooting the issue as you must have been out of your 90 days complimentary phone support. The $69.99 would have been for AppleCare Protection plan which would extend your hardware coverage for another year making it 2 from the date of purchase.
To have your phone evluated at an Apple Retail Store is completely. Also if you are still within your 1 year limited warranty and you need a replacement that would be free of charge. The only time you need to pay for a replacement would be if there was physical or liquid damage to the phone or depending on your country/region if you are out of your 1 year limited warranty.

HT4623 after I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 6.1 I can't access my WiFi (The greyed out Wi-Fi button)

after I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 6.1 I can't access my WiFi (The greyed out Wi-Fi button)

Most likely the iphone was hacked to unlock it from the original carrier
updating the iOS will relock a hacked iPhone to that Carrier

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.

Hello Philly,
I believe that when you reset your ipod(command given from the computer, right?) touch WHILE the ipod was updating, It cleared the system in the middle of writing files, thus corrupting(equivalent of cutting of in the middle of a sentence) the basic running system.
I suggest you go to an apple store and ask for a technical diagonosis in person. they may offer to help if the problem is fixable. If your ipod is still under warrenty, i would guess it would be free/low cost.
