iOS 6 installed. Can't access home Wi-Fi. Takes me to apple.com rather than allow me to enter pw.

iOS 6 installed. Can't access home Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi on. Home network has password. Takes me to apple.com 404 page, rather than allow me to enter pw in network settings. Very frustrating!

I have this issue as well but only for certain wireless networks. Everything was working fine at work where I updated both my devices, but as soon as I got home and tried to connect to my Time Machine's wireless network, I can't connect.


The odd thing is, I keep having a login screen, like the kind that pop up when you have to login at a place like starbucks, that tries to go to a page on apple.com. No idea why it is bringing this login sceen up as it shouldn't be needed in order to connect to my home network. This is happening with both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4.


I've tried all the steps short of reverting to a backup/ios 5

Also having the same problem with Ipod Touch 4th Gen. Couldn't do update over wifi so connected to laptop and did over itunes but now I get a page tellign me there are just a few more steps to follow and it will be done. Click on continue and takes me to wifi connection. When I click on my connection it puts a tick shows the wifi symbol at top for a second then takes me to that apple.com page that says LOG IN at the top but underneath says"Hmmm, the page you're looking for can't be found"


Can anyone please help as I now have no ipod as you can't do anything to get out of this position. You hit cancel ad it takes you back to where it left you after the update was installed. Beginning to wish I hadn't done it now.

The below solution DID NOT work for me either... trying to power cycle the router (an Apple router, and another one by LinkSys both have same issue)

SOLUTION: Guys to fix this, Forget your network. Then retap it and put in the password for your network and it should work. It worked for me.

I have the same problem. Connects to my home network for about 2 seconds then back to 3G. I have an iPhone 4. I tried resetting network settings but that did not help. It also redirects me to a login page on Apple.com which gives me the 404 error. Not sure why it is even launching a page when I try to login to my home wifi.


PLEASE FIX!
