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??
iPhone 5, iOS 6
But what about when you font have access to router settings? If unwanted a phone I could only use at home, of get a landline...
Finally took my phone back and convinced the store to give me a swap out. Came home, all worked 100% so my conclusion is that the issue was hardware related.
Same thing with me. My replaced iphone 5 works perfectly. I am just upset that it took five tries over 8 months to get a replacement.
I did factory reset and everything works now. Also had bluetooth connection issue and that also is resolved.
I had this problem too with my iPhone 5. Restore didn't work so I went to Apple Store and got refurbished one and now I'm happy with my wifi connection.
You got lucky. I am on my third iPhone 5 and I have yet to get a good one.
How do you know what chip your iPhone has?
Which chip is the good chip?
Sweet baby bejebus!!! I've been suffering with my home wifi not connecting to my iphone5 for months! This solved the problem - thank you, thank you thank you!!!!!

I have solved my problem changing the security setting the router to WEP instead to WPA, no problems in the last 3 days ...... for now.
They tried the reset-to no avail.
I'm curious if one of the reasons they went to a plastic body on the 5C is that the metal body was interfering with the antenna.
Not in the least. If anything, the metal body improved reception.
So far I haven't had WiFi issues since upgrading to OS7. It may be too early to tell but I managed to stay connected longer than I have before. Maybe the update will fix this issue for good.
