ios9 wifi not working

Hello,


Since updating to iOS 9 I cannot connect to my work wifi. It keeps telling me the password is incorrect even though it is identical to my PC which is connected. I have an iPhone 5s 16gb. wifi at home works fine.

iPhone 5s, iOS 9

I have this same issue. My two kids have upgraded to iOS 9 on their iphone 5s and wifi is not connecting, it claims the password is wrong even though it is the correct password. My iPhone 6 plus running version ios 8.4 and the same wifi is working on my phone. So it is definitely not a wifi problem. Also all other devices in our house, such as this computer, roku, etc have been working fine.


This is an apple problem, for us it is specifically related to the ios 9 upgrade.


Apple, you need to get this fixed.

Hello,

I have the same problems. I updated my router (TP Link) firmware to the last version, changed DNS on my modem and router to Google DNS, forgot wifi connection on iphone, reset all network connections on my iPhone and restored to factory default my router settings and configure it again, and nothing solve my problem.


I'm using wifi on my Macbook normally, but when i connect my iPhone on my wifi, they don't work normally, apps like Facebook, Instagram, Mail don't work and i can't access any sites on my Macbook too, the wifi connection get slow in all devices.

Issue #1 where iOS 9 Wi-Fi will not connect to a network with Hidden SSID:

I talked to one of the support person @ Apple yesterday and he confirmed this to be a known issue with iOS 9, with a fix to be available in the next version. I have no way to confirm/deny his claim because he did not gave me any Radar Report for tracking purpose. For now, I'm just taking it at face value.


Second, I also came across this thread on the developer forume where people have reported the exact same issue with Apple TV:

https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/18979Radar #: 22774956. Fingers crossed that it get the attention.

Also for those using VPNs, just a heads up that iOS 9 also breaks it: http://www.networkworld.com/article/2985055/ios/ios-9-breaks-vpns-and-prevents-s erver-access-for-many.html
