Using Xfinity Wireless

Is there a way my login for Xfinity can be kept without having to enter it at every hotspot? It is already set to auto- logon but I have to enter the user Id and password every time.

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1

Morning WLE_52,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


When you create a Wi-Fi profile for an iOS device, you can configure a device to automatically join a configured wireless network.


For more information on this, take a look at this article:

iOS Wi-Fi profiles: About Auto Join and per-connection password settings

For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:

If your iOS device does not auto-join a Wi-Fi network you've already connected to

Avoid giving your Wi-Fi network a common name.

  • Apple maintains a list of common or ambiguous SSIDs, including the default SSID for many commercially available access points, as well as the SSIDs "wireless" and "default".
  • If you do have a common SSID, try changing your network name to something unique.


Hope this helps,

Mario
