    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings

     

    Restart your iPhone then tap Settings > Wi-Fi and re enter your password.

    There could be many things at play here. First let's try the easiest. Go to Settings > General > Reset  and Reset Network Settings. Then a forced restart. Hold down the Home and Wake/Sleep buttons at the same time for about 15-20 seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it comes up. You will not lose anything. Then reconnect with your network and see..

     

    Other options to try but I recommend those first...
