Wifi issues (Again)

[Bez89]

I upgraded to the iPhone 6 on Saturday, and I'm having issues with wifi. It will be fine, the suddenly disappear, and won't connect or find any wifi sources unless I turn the phone off then on again. I've tried the hard reset and everything, and it's still doing it. I'm concerned because I had a very similar issue, when I got my iPhone 5. That wouldn't find any wifi, and it turned out it was an issue with the receiver on the phone, and I had to get it replaced. This is very similar, as when mine losses wifi, my missus's is fine, also mine doesn't find all networks that hers does. I'll be really annoyed if the same thing has happened twice.

Hi

Not at all. We come here to help and assist so don't worry.

If the Genius finds the iPhone at fault they'll swap it out for you.

Would you let us know how you get on with this.

Hope they can sort it for you

Cheers bandofbrothers and MI5, and will do. It is scary the amount of people having the exact same issue as me though, wifi dropping out, then finding nothing. Just the circle going round unless reset. Have a look on google, I definitely think it's an issue with Apple now.

Hopefully they will recognise it as their issue and patch it quickly - I heard today that 8.1 could be out soon !!!

This is on iphonehacks as a possible interim fix.

Hi all, just a quick update. Been to the Apple Store today, and the guy said there was definitely an issue with wifi on the phone. He couldn't be certain if it was in issue with the new iOS or not though, so they replaced the handset. My old one didn't pick up anything in the store, he did say a few people had been in with the same issue, and he too thought an update would be imminent. Phones been a lot better so far, here's hoping it continues. 😜

You can't beat Apple for customer service, that's for sure.
