wifi drops out since ios 7

Well what you can do it's trying different routers and see if the issue still percist than you should take your iphone to the apple store for a check up. I know that most likely by next week will be an update. I had also issues with airdrop. So i know for sure it's the iOS 7.

The only thing is that i know from severel people is that by some cases by updating to iOS 7 their wifi chip got damaged. So i advise to either wait for the update and wait to see if it was fixed and if not make an appoinment with apple to replace the phone.

The guy at the apple store said it was my home router, that i needed to reset it. did that a couple times, the phone didn't act any different. i can only assume that it worked in the apple store because they have an apple router that the phone understands better.

My wifi didn't work on my ipad right after I updated to ios7. I tried every solution I could find online including reseting/rebooting my router, re-entering my wireless password, removing the apostrophe from the ipad name, and some others I can't even remember. I finally upgraded the firmware on my wireless router and the ipad connected to the router without a problem.

For no apparent reason, my wifi started working yesterday. i haven't tried to fix it in a couple days, i did try most of the fixes listed online in the past week, so no idea which one acutally worked.🙂

try to give static ip and type password. it worked for me. on my wi-fi i have DHCP but i given static ip on my phone. it worked

what do you mean 'try to give static ip?

OK... Every Gadget has 2 ways to identify the network.. Automatic and manual. onfigure this manually.... In the Network you wish to connect click the i symbol.... in the top highlight, chack the static tab.

From your router identify the address details.. these details can also be seen from your computer wifi connection details...

Add them manually....

I guess in ios 7 the software is finding it difficult to latch on to wifi networks which have multiple ip addresses (office wifi)... it seems to accept the single ip adress connections quite effeciently...

Summarising... you need details of your wi fi connections like, ip address, router address, subnet mask.... all these are displayed in your connections on the computer

OK, thanks. I'm not sure if I need to do that yet, I'll tell you what happens at my house, my wifi on my iphone says not connected (even though my other 2 macs are all connected to servers, so it's working for sure) and when I choose a wifi on my iphone I click on mine and then it connects and then disconnects and keeps doing that pretty much one after the other for about a minute then seems to drop and says its not connected when I look.

But, when I try and use tumblr and browser and IG and stuff on my iphone at home it seems to work most of the time, im not even sure if it's using my wifi or the internet I get from my phone provider (virgin).

It doesnt seem to be a big deal really, most the time I can get net stuff up on my iphone and I havent tried it on many other places yet, although I tried it at the local RSL club which has free wifi and they gave me their password and I could use the net there, so I guess im all good?

I have got the same issue with my IPad mini. It is caused by iOS 7, there's no discussion about that. Apple should fix it.

My iPhone 5 keeps dropping wifi. At home, at work, and anywhere else I am that has wifi. It'll connect for a few minutes then drop. When I go to reconnect, just says "Unable to Connect". Talked with Apple Support and they said it's a common issue right now. They also said it could be that "software was incorrectly installed." They had me do a clean restore then set up the phone as a new phone. Problems still persist.

also, had this dropout problem. tried the static ip trick. solid network connection now. no dropout.

I've been experiencing this WiFi issue recently. I cannot say if the cause was upgrading to iOS 7, because I noticed the same problem happening on iPhone 5 (iOS 7) and iPhone 3GS (iOS 6.1.3):

- losing WiFi connection frequently

- "weak" WiFi signal as if I was far away from the router

- sometimes cannot even see the WiFi network (even in the same room of the wireless broadband modem/router)

- constantly on 3G instead of WiFi before unlocking

- WiFi connection possible after disabling/enabling WiFi or enabling/disabling Airplane mode; in any case after few minutes, both phones were on on 3G again

Other PCs and MACs had no connectivity problem at all. I'm using a D-Link DSL-2740B.

These steps didn't help:

- router: change from WPA2 to WPA

- router: disable Wireless Filter / MAC filter

- router: save settings - hardware reset to factory defaults - restore settings

- router: reboot

- iPhone: reset network settings

- iPhone: hard-reset (Power+Home button)

Solved my problem (but it could be just my own case) by:

- iPhone: remove saved WiFi network

- router: hardware reset to factory defaults (using the button on the back of the router)

- router: power off then power on

- router: manually re-enter all settings (didn't enable Wireless Filter yet)

- iPhone: join to WiFi network (same SSID and WPA Key as before)

Now it works perfectly as it is suppose to. After 3 days I didn't experience any WiFi issues both on the iPhone5 and the 3GS. Hope this can help.

Was constantly rebooting my router thinking that was the problem with both my iphone and my wife's iphone as well as her iPad losing wifi connectivity. I ran across a possibility, maybe earleir in this thread or somewhere else, where the suggestion was to remove the apostrophe from the name of the device. Each of the threee devcies were named, for example", "joe's iphone" or "mary's ipad or iphone". Since renaming the devices to "joe iphone", "mary iphone", "mary ipad" connectivity seems to be improved as it hasn't dropped off for most of the day now for any of the three. Only time will tell if this is a temporary fix or a longer lasting solution.

So to add to the confusion, I have not seen this problem with 4 iPads and 2 iPhones until this weekend. Just out of the blue one ipad3 and 1 ipad4 started doing this, laptops have no issue what so ever. It's very confusing.

I will say that it appears to coincide with a dhcp lease renewal. Could be antecdotal, but the failures seem to be around the same time as the expiration time indicated in the lease record on my dhcp box.
