donoreo Premium join:2002-05-30 North York, ON	[iPhone] iOS 6.0.2 for iPhone 5 and iPad Mini only(?) Apple has released an iOS update for the iPhone 5 and iPad mini, bringing the iOS version for those devices up to 6.0.2. The release notes for the iPhone says an unnamed Wi-Fi bug has been fixed. »www.macrumors.com/2012/12/18/app···-fi-bug/ »support.apple.com/kb/HT1222 -- The irony of common sense, it is not that common. I cannot deny anything I did not say. A kitten dies every time someone uses "then" and "than" incorrectly. I mock people who give their children odd spelling of names.

I'll check WPA2 enterprise tomorrow. Yes, at home the signal strength of my two access points seems to jive with reality more (eg the closer one displays a stronger signal now, imagine that). I'll have to wait until Thursday to see how the open wifi spot at work works... But I'm hopeful! -- ♬ Music is life ♬

In fact, it works great at work where my iPhone 5 can't even see the same wifi hotspot. What wifi-related problems are you having with your iPad 2? Since iOS 6x my iPad 2 has spotty WiFi performance on AT&T hotspots like Starbucks has. I can sit in Starbucks and my iP4S on iOS6 doesn't miss a beat yet the iPad will connect for a while then, even with WiFi bars showing it will not be able to download anything for 5 mins then it works again. This is very consistent behavior. It could be SB changed something in their router but it seems a coincidence. At home I have no WiFi problems with the iPad. -- My Gallery Formerly Nezmo

It was my understanding that these Wi-Fi problems stemmed from IOS6, so why no update for the 2,3, or4? Was just curious -- I would expect that if the wifi problem were solely related to the firmware, I would see the same issues on both my iPhone 5 and my iPad 2 but I don't. My iPad 2 has been rock solid wrt to wifi where my iPhone 5 has not for the exact same access points and physical locations. -- ♬ Music is life ♬

darcilicious Cyber Librarian Premium join:2001-01-02 Forest Grove, OR kudos:2 Reviews: ·Frontier FiOS	reply to donoreo So, yes, my iPhone 5's wifi is better now with 6.0.2 than it was (at work and at home), probably as good as my iPhone 4 was at work so that's good. But... (and I'm not entirely sure) I may be seeing this (new) issue »www.ilounge.com/index.php/news/c···ry-life/ Seemed like my battery was a lot lower over night last night and didn't recharge as well on the way in to work... I'll be keeping an eye at for that, I guess... -- ♬ Music is life ♬
