Wireless Degradation with iOS 5?

I have 5 devices that were upgraded successfully to iOS 5, but I appear to be getting some degraded performance on three devices when using wireless.
my iPhone 4S, iPad and another iPhone 4 all appear to degrade over time whilst using the wireless in my home However, my wife and daughters iPhone 3GS devices do not suffer at all.
Email gets slow, web pages get very slow to fetch and eventually the devices that are affected complain they cannot recieve or connect to the Internet at all!
At first I suspected my Apple Wireless basestation but I have since tried a Netgear with the same issues. I have even setup two wireless routers, on different channels, one running 802.11G and the other 2.4Ghz 802.11N and I still get the same issues.
A device rest reolves all issues and everything goes back to normal.
Anyone else experiencing this problem?
thanks in advance...

I have similar issues with my 3GS, yet the iPad 1 is fine.
The 3GS experiences severe lags in standard operation, major drop-outs in wireless connectivity (even when the device is next to the router) and really poor gps reception to the point that it's completely unusable.
I have yet to do a full restore, although a device reset did not resolve it.
I can only hope that apple address this soon.

Should my iPhone 1 (iOS 3.1.3) with Bluetooth 2.0 (Handset HSP?) work with wireless earbuds with BT 4.0 and the Headset (and Handsfree, A2DP, AVRCP) protocol? They pair and connect; status bar looks good. But audio always comes out the speaker. Thx.

Should my iPhone 1 (iOS 3.1.3) with Bluetooth 2.0 (Handset HSP?) work with wireless earbuds with BT 4.0 and the Headset (and Handsfree, A2DP, AVRCP) protocol? They pair and connect as expected (with a PIN); status bar looks good and shows Bluetooth active, and I even see the iPhone displays the battery levels of the wireless earbuds. But audio always comes out the speaker. (If I plug in wired headphones into the headphone jack then audio comes into the wired headphones, as expected.) I have rebooted the iPhone; I have had it forget about the wireless earbuds, and repaired and reconnected; I have reset all network settings. Thx in advance.
PS: I understand that more recent versions of iOS have a way to choose where audio output goes (speaker, headphone jack, Bluetooth device). Does this older version of iOS? I could not find an option or setting.

I've noticed this lately as well, with my iPhone 4. I couldn't confidently pin it directly on any particular iOS update, but my iPhone used to automatically connect up via Bluetooth with my Prius's handsfree feature, and now it doesn't. I work with a CE-based device at my job, with Bluetooth capability, and I used to test out that feature by having it discover my iPhone. This no longer works either.
What I have found (not really a solution, but it does work and may be a clue for Apple) is that if I simply go to the Settings app then the General -> Bluetooth screen and let it sit there, it will pair right up with my car within a few seconds. Bluetooth is always on, and always says "Now Discoverable" at the bottom of the settings screen.

TS3694 I tried to update my iphone 3gs from ios 5 to 6 but because of software crash and while restoring with ios 6 it is not activated. Now I degrade it in ios 4 and can not use any app. How can I update this iphone?

Downgrading the iOS is not supported, and likely has caused the problems you are experiencing.
You'll need to go elsewhere for support.

Need help with IOS commands to see wireless printer

Seems that I'm not asking the question correctly, or providing the right information.
The problem:
I've purchased a wireless printer, (an HP 6500a) and I can not see / ping / use the printer on the wireless network.
Environment:
Cisco 891 ISR in standalone. Single office - Home-office environment. Nothing spectacular. WLAN connected and operational to the internet.
The printer is configured to use a static IP of 10.0.0.3 and reports that it is connected to the AP. However, when I ping FROM the command line at the AP, I DO NOT see the printer. (I did previously, but we lost power last night due to a storm and I'm still trying to reconfigure it...) DHCP is configured on the router to exclude the range 10.0.0.1 through 10.0.0.99
How do I configure the wireless router to allow any connected client to share files / printers etc? Seems that the Cisco router has this shut off
by default and I've found nothing in the user manual or by asking for help on here how to reverse this so that I can share printers / files on the LAN.
Please, I'm not stupid, but I'm only casually familiar with IOS and Cisco's networking terms.
Thanks in advance,
-Mike

IPhone 4s with iOS 8.1: Wireless networks not detected

My iPhone has ceased to detect any wireless networks. When I am trying to turn WLan off and on again, the settings app is extremely slow or hangs or the phone crashes and reboots.
I have reset the network settings several times with no improvement. I have mad a soft reset with no improvement. Does anyone have any ideas how this might be solved?
Thank you!

I had to do a complete reset of my iPhone 4s for another reason (the new iTunes could not access my Phone...). Afterwards wifi networks could be detected more often, even connection was possible sometimes. However this connection still is very unstable and frequently interrupted when used.
Just now, the iPhone rebootet while I was making a call... These wifi problems are just the top of an iceberg of problems I am having since I've installed iOS 8
I sincerely hope the announced 8.1.1 solves them (but I don't really believe my iPhone will ever be what it used to be). I doubt an iPhone is the right purchase for my next phone. There are other manufacturers out there who dont' force their customers to use a malfunctioning release of their operating system. I am talking about signing: It isn't even possible to downgrade and install a working os.
Apple, I loved you so much because you had beautiful products that work seamlessly. With iOS 8 you broke my heart. My iPhone is now a beautiful and useless brick of electronic garbage. From this day forward, I shall regard you as just another hardware manufacturer selling your products at unreasonable prices. Good luck with that. The question if you are able to uphold quality, innovation and design of your products without Steve Jobs has now certainly been answered.

HT4972 Hi I have an iPad with iOS 612 and am trying to connect a wireless printer, I don't think it's doing it because I don't have iOS 10 or more. Is this right?.

Hi I have an iPad with iOS 612 and am trying to connect a wireless printer, I don't think it's doing it because I don't have iOS 10 or more. Is this right?.

If you want to use AirPrint - the buit in feature in iOS that allows you to print directly from the iPad without another app - you need to be using an AirPrint Printer. There is a list of those printers here.
AirPrint basics
If your printer is not on the list, you may still be able to use your current printer, but will need to purchase a printing app for the iPad from the App Store.
I don't understand you reference to iOS 10 unless you mean OS X10 for Mac.

WiFi problem with iOS 6 and network login screen

Here is a detail problem description:
Equipment: iPad 3 with iOS 6
Environment: corporate network with a login screen that requires login every 24 hours.
What happens: The very first time I tried to login into the network everything worked fine. The login screen showed up (as always did with iOS 5) as expected. But, the login screen does NOT come after 24 hours (when re-login is required), unless I will reboot the iPad (using the 2 buttons), or I will reset the network settings (which again does a reboot). Switching on-off the WiFi, or any other remedy does NOT work.
The problem is not related to the network or the particular iPad or iPhone. All iPads and iPhones with iOS 5.2 or earlier work just fine. Only the ones with iOS 6 have this issue.
I would appreciate any creative idea to resolve the issue. Thank you.

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304

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.

Ipad and iphone with IOS 7 but older Mac - How?

I have an IMac with 10.5.8 system and iTunes 10.6.3. I recently got an iphone 5 and ipad 3 with IOS 7. Now I cannot sync them with my itunes library. It refuses to recognise them and tells me to upgrade to iTunes 11.1. but I cannot and when i try to update my Imac OS it will not let me either saying I all software is upto date. What do I do to get my stuff onto my ipad - I have a library of personal / family vids I converted to play and sync from my itunes account but now cannot get them onto my ipad / iphone? Wireless transfer works fine for stuff and apps purchased from iTunes but I have a couple of itunes accounts, one from years back but has a lot of stuff on it (UK one) and a newer one I had to create on moving to Japan permamently as I now have no registered address in the UK. How do I add an additional Apple ID to my iphone / ipad? Can this even be done anymore?
Beginning to wish I had never upgraded to ios 7 as all worked fine before. Can I undo this upgrade?
Thanks for any help or suggestions!

1. A Mac needs to be running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer to sync devices running iOS 7; Mac OS X 10.6 is available from the online Apple Store and requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB of RAM.
2. There is no way back.

IPad 4 with iOS 6.0.1 can't connect to wifi/upgrade/iCloud

Hi,
Co-worker has iPad (4th gen) with iOS 6.0.1 and would like to upgrade to iOS 8 BUT the iPad does not connect to wifi or 3G to make that upgrade. Also when connected to a computer (tried MacBook) the iTunes does not recognize the iPad thus making it also impossible to have and iCloud update and save all the documents.'
Is there a way to do get iOS 8 on that iPad and/or save all the documents in iBooks?
Thank You!

Go to settings and reset after reset you need to enter your Router Wireless key Just do reset NOT FACTORY RESTORE I KNOW THIS WORKS I have done this on 1 IPhone& 2ipads 5 days ago no problems since. Bsydd uk

Bluetooth not working with IOS 7 and apple tv Ver3

I have a ver 3 Apple TV MD199X/A and an Iphone running IOS7. I saw recently that there is an option with IOS 7 to bluetooth sync with Apple TV. Neither my Iphone 4S or Apple TV is recognisiing each other in bluetooth mode. My iphone bluetooth is working fine with my car and is always on.
What is the Problem?

This fits with the observable results, however it does seem a little odd. The apple engineers coud have at least written the software to say something like, " I see an Iphone, but I can't do anything with it." Currently, it seem to behave like there is a problem with bluetooth connectivity. Not that the bluetooth is working fine, it just has nothing it can do with the two devices.
What you are trying to say has no sens. Check Apple TV manual and informations what bluetooth on this device is for and what options is giving to you before blaiming engineers for not making something straight.
Apple Tv 3rd (and 2nd) generation doesn't have a built-in storage and is more as a streaming device not syncing device. I suggest you read about Apple TV 3rd gen features and functionalyty and also about home sharing, airplay and airplay mirroring, apple remote app.
Also, check this information here: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP648

EAP-TLS not working with IOS 4.1

Hello,
I've lot of iPhone in my enterprise,
I've configured it putting user certificate and authenticate on the wireless network using EAP-TLS mode, choosing user certificate and give the username, and it was working.

when the network is configured, it's working all the time.
since 4.1.3, I can't configure this network, I can't approve my server radius certificate (so I succeed to authenticate from server)
I've already tried to put my root CA certificate in iPhone, doesn't change anything (It should be trusted ! all servers certificate are from this CA)
I've tried to preconfigure this wireless network with iphone configuration utility, not working.

you can update over the air with strong wireless signal, or by connecting to a computer running iTunes. Either works well. If you do the update over the air, be sure and attach your iPhone to a wall outlet so you have a solid power supply and don't risk the battery dying during the update.
The iTunes approach installs a much larger file because of the connection, but if you have not updated since 5.1 that might be a better approach...replace the entire operating system instead of patching.
Either way, backup the iPhone yourself just for your own protection in the off-chance something should go wrong...a little paranoia while updating is a good thing
