IOS 6 keeps going to an apple log-in screen every time I try to access my home wifi.

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

Had the same problem, reset network settings, told it to forget the network and put in the password again, reset the entire phone (pushing the home and power button), nothing. Then while sitting here looking at all the messages about this problem it started to work, the wi-fi worked. I kind of think it was a waitng game, it just took the iPhone a while to sort things out.


I will test this idea when I get home with the other two iPhone 4s and the two iPads, and iPod Touch. Will let you know how it turns out.


Good luck everyone,

Hi. I was having the same problem. Turn of cellular data. And restrict to wifi only. It will then connect to wifi.when you see the log into apple page. Press the home button and open safari. Google anything. Close safari. Then go back to cellular data and switch back on. This worked for me. Havent had a problem since doing that. My trouble started when i was in airplane mode and then turned it off.

Same here. I did the iOS install through the phone at work. Worked fine. Got home, synced with iTunes. Trouble only after I shut down completely and restarted. iPhone 4S. Been messing with it for an hour.


Wow, weird. Possible solution... I went into settings-->general-->vpn. Didn't even toggle the setting - and exited. It suddenly connected to my WiFi. Don't know if it was a coincidence or what.
