I am trying to connect my iPhone 4 to my wireless home network. I can see the network but when I select it, it will not connect. Does anyone have an idea why it will not connect?
Good morning don2525,
Wi-fi is a wonderful way to supplement data usage on the iPhone 4! Also, you can use Facetime over a wi-fi network and update apps that are greater than 20MB, such as Skype. May I ask what type of security do you have on your home wi-fi network? This is very important as it might be encrypted or hidden. I would recommend checking the settings on your wi-fi network at home. A popular security type and easiest to setup in my opinion is WPA or WPA2. It is believed that WPA is more secure than WEP. Of course, I encourage you to double check the wi-fi security settings on the router for functionality.
Once the wi-fi settings has been verified then retry to connect using your iPhone. For the community members that are unsure as to how to connect to a wi-fi network using your iPhone 4(S) or additional troubleshooting options, I have posted a link for your review.
