Iphone 12 Pro Max Keeps Losing Wifi Signal

I returned my 12PM.

Dropping Wi-Fi connection every 30 minutes or so. This was the second time I returned my 12pm for the same reason.

Funnily enough, my back up phone (IP11) works flawlessly with my Wi-Fi.

I WON'T be purchasing a new iPhone this coming September. I have absolutely no confidence that Apple are even interested in fixing this problem, which, for many new iPhone 12 PM users is unbearably frustrating. It really feels like Apple have their fingers in their ears, going 'bla bla bla, We can't hear you - well, we can, but fixing it would cost us millions, so we're just ignoring y'all - please spend you hard earned wonga this coming September so we can make more billions.

Not that I'm sceptical or anything! :-)

I bought 12 ProMax yesterday me too faced same fedup issue with wifi but I resolved it successfully. Please follow below steps:

1. Reset network settings
2. change sim network from 5G to 4G
3. try now it should work fine.
4. if it still not works for u then restart ur device and connect wifi now it should for work fine you.

Im having the same problem as well. My note 10 used to work flawlessly. I switched from android to iPhone after 11 years. There are so many bugs that I’m regretting the switch so much. Why isn’t Apple recognizing this as an issue? There are over 350 people affected by this. Will they start noticing this only if a big media partner takes about it? I’m going to start messaging the tech you tubers about this. Only if this goes big will apple even acknowledge it.

Thought I’ll stop in at an AT&T store to discuss options as paying phone off and ‘downgrading’ to a previous series phone, but besides the rather large payoff of phone (mine & wife’s) and fact that new one should be introduced somewhat soon I decided to hold off and put up with the crappy Wi-Fi situation 😒

While I agree with everyone about the issue being still present, the following has helped me to reduce significantly the amount of time it happens:

• Separate the bands of your Wi-Fi network in two separate networks 2.4 and 5 GHz and give to each network a different name and password.
• Do not join the 2.4ghz network or forget the network if you joined it previously
• Only join the 5ghz Wi-Fi network.

This reduced for me the amount of time I have to switch the Wi-Fi off/on on my iPhone 12 Pro.

I have noticed that iMessage still seems to work fine while this issue is happening. Messages can get through, while any other app does not have connectivity.

One other thing is that my iPhone sits next to an older AM/FM radio alarm clock at night and I get this issue primarily in the morning when I pick it up, I wonder if there's some kind of interference happening that throws the WiFi radio off on the iPhone? I do occasionally hear radio frequency noises when I get a text message like in the early days of cell phones on AT&T.

To be honest I doubt it might be the FM radio. I don’t have one in my bedroom and for me the issue used to happen in different rooms in my house and in none of them I have a radio.

What’s your Wi-Fi set up? About a week ago I “forgot” my 2.5Ghz network and only connected to the 5Ghz (as per my suggestion above) and since then I didn’t have any issue so far.

SImple - the fire stick may have been bombarding the router or your general Wi-Fi environment with enough traffic your phones couldn't get a "word" in edgewise.

Moving all that traffic to a cable eliminates that "interference."

It could also be that the fire stick has a defective radio and that is causing pure radio interference when it uses Wi-Fi.

I’ve just changed my broadband router from talk talk to sky and my iPhone 12 Pro hasn’t dropped for 2 weeks! After 7 months of wifi dropping nearly every day …and lots of calls to Apple 🙈 fingers crossed it doesn’t drop ! Will update in a few months

I’ve got the same issue on my iPhone 12 mini. My business iPhone 8, my partner’s iPhone 6 and our laptops and iPads all connect ok, so it’s not a router issue.

I agree. When the 12 pro max is in idle/sleep state, the Wi-Fi re-connectivety to the (5GHz) network is where the problem lies - not to the re-connectivety to the 2.4GHz.

Hopefully a fix coming soon.

Exactly what I had to do until I found out it was a 5GHz issue. Disable your 5Ghz on the router. Just leave the phone connected to your 2GHz network. It'll work a treat.

I am having same issue - phone repeatedly drops internet connection. Not router. Other devices still work fine. Problem Specific to iPhone 12 Pro Max.

I tried your thing of disabling my 5 ghz WiFi and force connection to 2.4. So far 2 days no WiFi drop.

I have 2 x Google Wifis. Haven't separated out 2/5ghz as I really think it should just work. No other device has an issue on my network.
