Wi-Fi disconnects or signal strength is less than expected

1. Move closer to the Wi-Fi router (access point).
2. Check for sources of potential interference.
3. Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if signal strength improves.
4. Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including
   • previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
   • recently used Bluetooth accessories
   • VPN and APN settings

Best of luck,

Mario
