wifi doesn't work with IOS 7

I didn't update to IOS7 yet but as of last night both my iphone 5 and ipad 2 quit connecting to my home wifi. I have reset my wifi and even reset my whole ipad back to factory. It won't accept my password to access the secured wifi and password has not been changed. Since both my non apple computers are connecting it doesn't appear to be a router issue? The only update I did was icloud yesterday. Could that be an issue?

I know nothing about you however it would appear you may be some type of moderator on this Support Community. Nothing you say is helpful to the posters. You seem to enjoy chastising and belittling people when all they want to do is seek help. I have took your advice and submitted the below comments directly to http://www.apple.com/feedback/

however it would appear Apple are unable to reply personally to the customer. Sums it all up for me. I hope more posters here use the link to direct thier complaints directly to apple."

My Wifi connection worked fine until the latest upgrade. Now if I can get it to connect at all, it will kick out within hours. I do all the recommended resets which work but only temporarily. I tried to contact Apple. The call was dropped. I contacted them by email (with my PC). I received a "ticket" but when I tried to use it to contact them, it "could not be found". Then they had a nerve to send me an email to ask how my "experience" with Apple Support had gone. Talk about adding insult to injury.

This is beyond annoying.

Putting it in the freezer can not be a long term fix.. Are you getting proper signal strength?

I got my to turn on twice with all the random fixes.. and when it was on.. i get the strenght the phone would have to be right next to my wifi signal.

I have not tried the freezer.

Ive tried everything including Bam11's post above. After installing IOS7 on my iphone 4 and ipad 3, everything worked fine til today, i woke up, saw my APE had a blinkung yellow light, reset and istalled latest firmware and got my steady green going, my old imac is connecting fine to the APE but my IOS7 devices wont, they recognize my network but just wont connect. Said devices can connect to other unlocked networks in the area but not mine. i suppose ill sit tight for a few days, im sure apple will address the issue or someone will provide a fix.

pleaee excuse my wording and gram,,,, I'm at work trying to multi.

I am having same problem -- upgraded iPhone to IOS7 last Sunday...I just noticed yesterday that it wasn't connected to my home WiFi (Apple Airport). But the button to turn WiFi on won't even move? I have not updated iPad yet, so it and my iMac continue to be WiFi fine. It's not my WiFi.... it's the IOS upgrade. I also have a 4s.

I just upgraded to ios 7.0.2 --- and still having the same problem. It's like the WiFi on the phone has been disabled or something. Weird

Hi you are right, The ios7 has caused a problem with my iPhone 4S but will be replaced because its 10months old. I have read an article tonight that has made me unimpressed with Apple. They have no plans to sort the wifi issue and that customers are on there own. If Apple don't stand by there loyal customers and sort this, then the customers will eventually buy other products. I for one will not purchase another Apple product even after a replacement.

Goodluck to all of us if apple would bulge and listen this time...we've been belingered by the same problem since IOS 6 and Apple said it was a hardware issue on most phones and not related to updating to IOS 6.......didnt buy it and put my 4s in the drawers for months since then, just gathering dust.....then lately had it updated to IOS 7 thru itunes and got wifi back on for a while until it dropped out and happened As frequent as most users on this thread....same bandaid fixes work but still will drop out after some time...i was even able to update it to the latest ios 7.0.2 OTA using home wifi and did facebook a lot....wifi still drops and had same hanging issues esp. On settings menu......Apple, who's lying now?......fix our phones and get your act together......be responsible on your wreckless & damaging upgrades.....otherwise, you'll be a sinking ship

Oh I hate apple so much now. Paid too much for this phone, working well, and now - no wifi, only crushes, can't restore my apps.

I'm siriously thinking about flushing my iphone down the toilet and getting a new Galaxy or Nexus.

Many people around the world are unhappy with iOS7.

Submit your feedback to Apple's iPhone product team at: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

Spread the word, more people need to tell Apple they are unhappy with iOS7 and hopefully Apple will either fix the problems or let us downgrade to iOS6.

I did file a complaint at Apple's feedback site, but I think the prospects are rather dim. If they wanted to accept responsibility for this fiasco, they would have done it long ago (just imagine a communique from Apple: "We are aware of the problem, it is our fault, and we are working day and night to put it right. Sorry y'all!" - now, THAT would be a totally different kettle of fish!). For now their attitude seems to be "your problems, not ours". I am this close to saying: "To **** with this, even if I have to repurchase all my favorite apps for a new Android smartphone, it will be cheaper than buying a new phone or paying for a replacement, so I should probably cut my losses and run. THAT they will understand - "voting with your feet" has always been and will always be the most efficient method of punishing corporations which grow smug and unresponsive. That is what competition is for, after all. I give them two weeks maximum to come up with a solution (or a recognition of the problem), and then off I go to greener pastures (the Far East seems a good place to start)... And yes, this IS an ultimatum... 👿

Agree with your balanced opinion here.

As you point out the real question is what Apple want to do about the unfortunate 4S customers who basically had an unreliable phone (from the hardware point of view) but didn't know about this until ios 7 caused the breakdown. There are many people like me who have just run out of the warranty but thought they were buying a quality product - obviously not a quality product if there is a chip prone to breakdown. Why should we pay for a production mistake that is clearly Apple's fault?

What do Apple want to do about it? Remain silent?

I wonder did Apple know about the chip being faulty and if so, why was there never a product recall done? How big is the problem? It is unfair that the customer is suffering becuse of all this. As for you, I completely understand your frustration, I wish I could help but this is Apple's problem and they need to sort it. I was getting a mini Ipad for Christmas from my family, I have told them to look at other ipads.....Not buying another apple product, whether my phone is fixed or not. All the best to you I hope you get this sorted? ITS SO UNFAIR.

You're right - there should be a product recall or at least a commit to replace the product in the event that the wifi fails ...

That's what companies that are proud of their quality would do at least - Apple just stays silent on the issue

I am also facing same issue. Not able to connect Wifi in my 4s phone by any mean. After upgrading to iOS7 wifi button got greyed out in settings and unable to turn it on. This is really frustating, Tried all suggested options but no luck yet.
