Realize that with an iPhone 4 you are really pushing the limits. Apple doesn't document possible issues since as far as they are concerned you should always be running the newest iOS version and if you are not then you should be using hardware that can. They may push that to the second newest but beyond that you are kind of on your own and keeping your fingers crossed things will still work. You are kind of in the 1930s of iPhones.


Here are a variety of resources helping with connectivity issues:


Restart your equipment and/or sign out and back in again, and try again.
