Just unplug the router from the power source - from the wall socket. Give it about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again and let it start up completely. Also restart the phone the way that I described it in my first post.


Even though all of your other devices can connect to your network, power cycling the router might help for the one that can not connect.

Try power cycling your router. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again. Force restart the phone as well. No data is affected by this.


To force restart your device, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
