So if someone sees and hears something from some people they are not allowed to possible believe it might be true? Why are you defending Apple so much? Let me ask you a question. Did Apple design the iPhone 4 incorrectly causing the deathgrip?
It's not that you see or hear something and believe its true or not, its that your perception of how technology works is completely flawed.
The argument isn't about iPhone 4, the Argument is about WiFi specifically about iOS 8 and iPhone 5 and 6.
I tried to present a valid case, and you are discounting my argument as false so it's ok to basically believe whatever you want regardless?
That's the problem, we aren't listening to each other, we are all just frustrated that technology isn't perfect.
My point is VERY valid and VERY plain.
WiFi is about the ROUTER, and I can prove it.
IF you bring your iPhone over to MY house and connect to MY router it will work, I have an iPhone 6 plus with iOS 8.2, so since this problem was initially "reported" in iOS 8.0 we can discount the fact there have been updates. So if your iPhone works it WORKS.
Now if you take that same phone and I bring my phone and we go to starbucks and you have a problem connecting, what does that mean?
Absolutely nothing, the ROUTER at Starbucks has problems because your phone OBVIOUSLY works, my phone works as well, it just so happens that it's ONLY Starbucks will not allow you to connect, why you and not me.. is anyone's guess.
The problem is NOT iOS 8, iPhone 5 or 6 because 2 identical phones one works the other does not. You people think that Apple doesn't test this, but they do, and then you get upset when they don't report on progress when they don't have to.
Apple takes customer feedback seriously, and you people just abandon all reason because you get upset that YOUR phone doesn't work for ONE Router, that's where we are getting derailed from the Argument.
You can't see the OBVIOUS reason why its not working, the only way WiFi is *NOT* working is if your phone NEVER connects to WiFi, that's ALL you need to know.
If it works for SOME routers, and not for others the problem is the *ROUTER*.
Apple has a FULL inventory of EVERY iPhone ever made.. I think you people forget what you are dealing with, you get upset, you want answers its not working so that gives you the right to just FLAME Apple?
Uh uh, sorry doesn't work that way.
As further evidence everyone with a problem should go to an Apple store, and make SURE you do this with a person with IDENTICAL phone and iOS, then test it. If one of you has a problem and the other doesn't.. then who are you going to blame, huh? The magical WiFi pixie god? Sun spots.. you will have an excuse why it doesn't work except the ONLY reason it's not.
Get a clue, LEARN technology and understand how things work. The ROUTER, not the phone, not the iOS, not the version.. the ROUTER is the problem, PERIOD.
