Wifi issue with iPhone 6?

[gemz4the1]

Has anyone else experienced issues with the wifi on the iPhone 6? I don't know if it is the iPhone 6 or the iOS 8.

The wifi randomly goes off and can't find a signal.  I put it on airplane mode and off again and still nothing - even when it is next to the router.  The only thing that resolves the issue is to reset the phone, although it is just a temporary measure and it happens agin 1 or 2 days later.

It's ok connecting to the home router - but it will randomly disconnect itself and I can't get it to connect again until I reset my phone.  I did have problems connecting it to a printer in a store when I was printing photos off.

Hopefully the 2nd restore will help - otherwise i'll be back at Apple in 2 weeks.

And I don't blame you for such an expensive item.

My second iPhone 6, has just started with the same problem tonight. I only took my old one in Monday, and had it swapped for a new one. I'm now fully convinced it's a iOS issue, I'm hoping the update sorts it out. Think it's out on the 20th of this month. Done a hard reset, see how it goes. 😣

Yeah, still lots of reports of dodgy wifi connectivity all over so I guess it must be software related.

Apple told me that after a restore people need to wait 2 weeks for the data to collect for when they do a diagnostic.

Does sound a reasonable settlement period after a restore for the logs to collate.

A very frustrating situation when you pay £600+ for a new phone...and it is having these issues. Even more frustrating is being expected to wait for 2 weeks until something 'can be done'...

Please do not think I make my comments purely because this is an iPhone.... Any item costing this amount should be issue free in my opinion...

To put it in perspective...I would hate to buy a washer/dryer costing in excess of £600 only to have some parts of it not work....:smileysad:

Every product family has a "lemon" at some time during its existence......even Roll Royce.....it's just that some are less public than others.

I've got exactly the same problems...I've had problems finding wifi...took 10 minutes to sign in to a network in a bar the other day ...and it occasionally can't search at all. Also the O2 signal is not as good as on the 4 s or S3 in our house..I've checked using the actual figures and it's a very volatile signal going from -78 to -117 in a matter of minutes without moving the phone. Far worse than the pretty static - 80 ish with the other two phones. Curiously daughter's updated 5s isn't so good as it was at holding the signal but it's better than my iphone 6 on ios 8.0
