iPhone 5 wifi issues
My iPhone 5 connects to wifi networks and remembers them, but receives absolutely zero data through the network. LTE and 3G no problem... Off to the repair shop (after 3 hours of ownership...) or any ideas??

I have created a video on my wifi problem. As mentioned in yesterday's message, only the black iphone 5 has issue. The white iphone 5 has no problem at all. I have added in an iphone4 to the video as well for comparison. I started right next to my router. At start, the black iPhone 5 failed to pick up 2 other networks in range. Then I walked into a room that is only 10 ft away from the router. Black phone loses all connection (no check next to SSID and wifi symbol changed back to 3G). This is a major problem and I have reseted all setting and changed router security type, etc and it still doesn't work.

Hi.
When I connect to my G network I have fast speeds all over the house.
When I connect to my N network the speed drops down to almost nothing.
Shouldn't the N be the fastest?
Something is clearly wrong.
My setting are exactly the same for both home networks. They are just running on separate antennas.

I am getting similar issues on my works Netgear router but home apple time capsule is fine. When at work it will be fine for a second then take ages to connect ! Not impressed as this is a brand new phone and should be working at least as good as the Iphone 4 which I previously had which worked fine on any router!
I'm from Melbourne, Australia. I have a black 32Gb iPhone 5 that is wi-fi bereft.
I have tried all the fixes suggested on this thread & no joy connecting to home wi-fi, even with all security turned off on my modem. Yesterday I went to the local shopping mall & connected to their free wi-fi in seconds.
Today at work I can't even get my Telco's 3G network either - says the server is not responding. No internet at all.
Also losing battery power at a great rate. I lost 6% power in just 12 minutes trying to connect to 3G at lunchtime. Very disappointing.
I have an appointment to see a genius on Thursday night. Hopefully I can have my phone replaced.
We have 2 64GB Verizon iPhone 5's and both of them are doing the same thing.
There was a moment when I speedtested it and it was blazing fast over 26mbps download on WiFi,
and then all of a sudden tried it again to show someone how fast the speed test were, and it was going at around 3-5mbps download and the upload seems to be consistent with all uploads rating at our internet upload speeds of around 5mbps. Its just the download for me, is anyone else experiencing this?
And if its uploads are consistent would that mean this is more than likely a software issue?
Once again, for everyone experiencing the main problem of this thread : connected to wifi but no internet acces exept if you change your security to WEP or no security, ask for a replacement at your local Apple Store. Even if they don't have iPhone 5 in stock, they probably have replacement phone and they will be ok to swap your phone.
Just explain the problem comes from WPA2, that you're sure of this because you tested it in multiple network and because more and more people are complaining about the same issue in Apple Support Communities. They will change your phone and it should solve your problem.
The sooner you do it, the better it is. In few days/weeks the replacement phones will maybe not be brand new phones.
Good luck to everyone and thanks to everyone who posted here. And sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language.
I'm in the uk. Also having wifi issues. It finds my router no problem and signal strength is ok and on par with my 4s and iPad. But things just don't load! I find my self constantly restarting apps or refreshing safari to get things to load. Eventually it works but its very slow and can certainly see a difference between this and my old 4s.
I've not really don't any other test as yet, tbh I thought it was my router at first and reset it a couple of times.
I'm connected with N. I may try g later and see if it makes a difference.
My "local" Apple store is three hours away, and the AT&T stores are totally out of stock. I called AT&T and they agreed to send me a replacement phone, but couldn't give me a specific date when it would ship.
Not sure why getting a replacement would solve the problem...
I was able to get things going by turning on by setting "Enable WMM (Wi-Fi multimedia) setting" on my NetGear router. I am using an iPhone3gs.
Sorry if this is a repeat - couldn't see any posts on OS6 for the 4S, but I have had a similar issue with wifi connection errors on the 4S, so I assume there is a software problem as this connection failure did not occur with OS5
Iphone5 64gb slow wifi cannot load QuickTime audio from my own website, lo-zrecords.com.
Turn off wifi and iphone5 is super fast. My wifi is wep and not locked. Ipad2 and iphone4s are fast. Why is my new iphone5 unable to have fast wifi?
Iphone5 wifi insanely slow even on wep insecure wifi. Cannot open QuickTime songs on my own website, lo-zrecords.com. No problems when I turn wifi off. iPad2 and iphone4s work fine with my wifi. Why doesn't the iphone5 have good wifi?
I have a 32GB Black phone and haven't had any issues with WPA2(Personal) + AES. I speed tested my phone and switched it to TKIP and same result.
I am using an older Linksys WRT54G with DDWRT firmware... ?
Similar problem but my mine and the wifes will connect to wifi with no problem can turn off cellular data off and works great, but when cellular data is on even though indicator is displaying usage through wifi it is using and burning up my data. Verizon said this is a known issue and are helping me with data until this is resolved. Went to Apple store said this was the first they have seen of this they swapped the device but failed to test the new device there, went home and same problem. I then noticed when i returned home mine was doing the same thing. Hope Apple fixes this soon thhis is a big issue.
