Wifi not working with iOS 11.4

I upgraded to iOS 11.4 and since then wi-fi doesn't work.

It's on on the control centre and in the settings menu I see the name of the network next to "wi-fi" as if it was connected, but when I go into the wifi menu the switch is off and I cannot turn it on.

I tried everything, from resetting network settings, to turning off network assist and the Wi-fi networking on location services, and nothing worked.

Also tried to set up the phone as new and the problem was solved, but then when I restored the back up I got the same issue again. I'd really like to avoid having to set up the device as new, because I don't have enough space on the cloud for everything on my phone, so I'd lose content anyway and I don't want that.

Anyone else with the same issue?

Do you think the next patch will fix it?

When will there be a next patch?

iPhone 8, iOS 11.4

I drove back from the Florida Keys two days ago to Chicago and finally let my iphone 7 plus phone update to 11.4 while I slept. Now today I search and find out I am not the only one that cannot stay connected to a Wi-Fi that I know works. The Wi-Fi is on and off and seems to reconnect if I get 1 foot away from it but then walk away and I can’t hold a signal even at -40 dB which is not that weak of a signal... it will not stay connected. There must be millions out there thinking it is their Wi-Fi that is not working and it’s really the upgrade to 11.4 ....apple please fix this ! I have to switch over to my Internet connection to stay connected and use up my monthly 22 gigs.


All started immediately after I changed my phone over to 11.4.

Having the same issue on my 6s. Wifi only works if I am standing within a few feet of the router. As I move away the signal weakens and dies. It worked fine before I upgraded to 11.4. Basically, I have no wifi now. Bluetooth seems to be a lot weaker as well since the upgrade - it disconnects constantly. Tried resetting and reboothe device and it made no difference.

Apple needs to stop giving run around reset this and reset that and turn phone off and on Etc. Fact is plain and simple I updated my IPhone X and my IPad Pro to the new 11.4 and magically WiFi and Data stops working it chooses every once in awhile to work but for the most part you can’t do anything. Apple needs to fix the issue in software and stop trying to pass it on as something else.
