iPhone 7 - Wi-Fi Spotty with Max Signal

Exactly, so I suggest you to bring your iPhone to the nearest Apple Store (when they'll be open after Covid-emergence) to do an Hardware test.

Here's Apple repair service: https://support.apple.com/iphone/repair/service

Hope to been helpful.

Hi Schmooie13,

Signal quality does not necessarily imply a fast connection, so it can be simply slow. Have you tried to do a Speed Test of the Wi-fi?

I also suggest you to Forget Wi-Fi Network and Rejoin

Here's the guide: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208941

Please perform the following actions and after each one test to see if the problem is resolved - if so then you can omit the following steps - I have tried to list them in order of increasing effort at least on a Mac and / or an iDevice 

 Check to see if the problem is isolated to one device and if other devices connect normally -  

 If the answer to 1 is "yes" - try to connect the affected device in another location if possible - café or university 

 Please see Apple's recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points 

 Perform a forced restart - this does not delete or purge any data and troubleshoots many issues - here is how - Hold down the   Off/On and Home buttons at the same time for about 15-20 seconds until the Apple logo appears. Allow normal boot up.

 Settings - WiFi - <network name> - Click on forget the network - do a forced restart as per 4 and then add the network again 

If at home - reboot the router by unplugging for 60 seconds from the AC (mains) and then plug it back in - obviously this step cannot       be done in a public place as a café/airport or university. While you are at it - make sure your router is operating on the latest firmware (check manufacturer site) 

Settings - General - Reset - Reset Network Settings - remember to have WiFi passwords handy since this erases stored WiFi passwords  

 If this is a net new device especially in your home - make sure the router is giving enough DNS numbers to accommodate everything that needs / wants a connection - stuff like the printer, Chromecast get overlooked - ask for details about this if not sure  

 Backup the device to iTunes - Restore as NEW (not from backup) using iTunes - see if problem resolves - if yes - restore backup  

 Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider. 

Ok, do you have connection problems only with this iPhone? Does other devices connected to the WiFi work well?

Thanks

Nice! 😀
