Q: Wifi wyd
How do I make the wifi on my ipod5 stay on consistently? The wifi at my house works yet it only lasts for a second on then disconnects.
iPod touch, iOS 9.3.5, null

Does the iOS device stay connected to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
Do other devices stay connected to your network?
Did the iOS device stay connected before?
- If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t connect to a Wi-Fi network

- 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.
- Reset network settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Network Settings. You will have to rejoin all wifi networks
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Power off and then back on your router
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points

- Restore from backup. See:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204184
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
