IPhone can't connect to WiFi
We would like to note right away that this problem most often occurs when working with a new network (you know that there is unlocked wifi in a store, restaurant, park on the bench - but you cannot connect today, although yesterday someone there was connected). When working with home wi-fi usually such problems do not occur. Let's try to figure it out.
The algorithm of our actions will be:
- First, check the router (if real), maybe your IOS device is out of range. If necessary, reboot the router or reduce the distance between it and your iPhone.
- It does not hurt to check the correctness of the password (case-sensitive), you can first perform a forced reboot of the device (especially relevant when there is a prompt "Wrong password").
- Try to "forget network" (Settings - Wi-Fi - connection name - "Forget" - search for networks, reconnect to the "forgotten" - enter password).
- You can try to switch router and access points into WEP mode (such advice is usually given on technical Apple forum).
- If the previous four steps failed, do a complete reset of the network settings (it will certainly lead to the data loss, but what to do!). Run the following: Settings - Main - Reset - Reset Network Settings.
Let's see some more possible problems. There are cases when:
- connection seems to be complete, but the pages somehow do not load, it is also recommended to perform points 1-3 of the instructions and, if necessary, point 5;
- there is a warning "Insecure network" on the phone - you can use (just a software warning);
- lit gray icon Wi-Fi - possible module failure, you have to go to the professionals.
Help: This guide applies to iPhones 5 series, as well as 4s, 5s, 6, 7 series.
As you can see there are quite a lot of connection errors, but each of them has its own solution. We are sure that one of the above tips gave a positive result and your Apple smartphone safely connected to wifi.
