After updating to ios 6 every time I try to access my wifi network my Iphone 4s goes to 3G and goes to an apple log-in screen that says "the page cannot be found". I have tried forgeting the network and re-entering the password and rebooting the phone but both didn't work. Any Ideas would be appriceated.
iPhone 4S, iOS 6
After upgrading to iOS 6 at my office, both my iPhone 4 and iPad HD worked fine all day on the corporate network. At home, the iPad HD connects just fine, but the iPhone 4 simply will not connect to my Airport Extreme. Same symptoms as described above.
The fact that my iPad connects but the iPhone does not seemingly argues against the Airport Extreme as the source of the problem.
Just chiming in here.....same thing happening here. Upgraded 2 iPhone 4s's and 1 iPhone 3Gs to iOS 6...they won't connect to wifi (Apple Time Capsule). The 2 iPhone 4's in the house which have NOT been upgraded are still connected to wifi with no problems. Sigh...
Yup. Same here in the UK, 4s with page coming up Hmm, the page you’re looking for can’t be found.
This is not a fun start to the latest operating system....
Pretty sure the issue is that the page the device loads in the background to check for captive portals -- networks the make you log in with a browser -- is down so it thinks every network is a captive portal.

It's not an OS problem, its a website problem on Apple's end.
This page: http://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html should just return the word "Success," based on Google's cache.
Same problems here, confirmed on iphone 4S and ipad3 wifi+cellular. Confirming iphone 4 in a minute. Airport Extreme Dual Band, had a WPA2 network, even added a NO security guest network and getting same issue. Worst Apple bug I've experienced... you'd think this would be tested together with an Apple router at some point. Worries me that Apple updates take a while to come down the pipe...
i have the same problem. apple *****
While I'm wanting to join in with a rant, I'm going to try and stay calm and lets see if we can find a commonality between us all having this issue.
I'm using a mix of Apple Wi-Fi basestations:
1TB Time Capsule (1st Generation)
AirPort Express (1st Generation)
AirPort Express (2nd Generation)
Network topology:
ADSL_modem --> Ethernet --> AirPort Express (2ndG) --> Wi-Fi --> TimeCapsule & AirPort Express
TimeCapsule & AirPort Express (1stG) extend the Wi-Fi network generated from the AirPort Express (2ndG).
Wi-Fi options:
Country: United Kingdom
Radio Mode: 802.11n (802.11a compatible) <-- that's a 5GHz network
Radio Channel: Automatic
Security: WPA2 Personal
IP setup:
ADSL_modem: 1.1.1.1/29
AirPort Express (2ndG): 1.1.1.2/29 <-- configured to do DHCP & NAT
Private LAN: 172.16.1.0/24
DHCP: 172.16.1.200 - 172.16.1.250
Affected Device: iPhone 4 (16GB, Black)
Upgrade Proceedure:
Hope this is of some use to someone. I grabbed the iOS 5.1.1 IPSW file prior to doing the upgrade, as well as taking backups via iTunes (10.7) so I'm in the process of reverting to iOS 5.1.1 and my last back up.
Sad to see such a key upgrade miss the mark for this many of us users (I'm hoping this discussion doesn't need to grow much more and we're the limited few who are affected).
Good luck to all, I'll keep an eye on the thread.

Same here in Ireland hard to believe a big company like apple allows this to happen,quick fix needed now APPLE.
just started working again
Found a potenial fix... Deleting the network from auto joining then adding the network in Manually via other fixed my issue.
Hope it helps
Exactly- it just drops my wifi- so frustrating! Sprint 4s here.
Breakthrough: I just found something that worked.
On your list of available networks in the wi-fi settings, select "Other" at the bottom of the list.
Then type in the name of your network (case sensitive) and hit join.
It worked for me first try and I've had this issue for an hour.
Thanks Worked for me iphone 4s
iPhone 4S on Sprint having the same issue after updating to iOS6.
IOS 6 keeps going to an apple log-in screen every time I try to access my home wifi.
