iPhone wont connect to wifi

    Happened all of a sudden yesterday, the network shows up fine when I search it but says "unable to join" when I try join it and the password is correct.

    All laptops in the house are connected fine, the phone was connected fine but then this happened... Pretty strange!

    Im running the latest software on the phone, the router updated it's firmware a couple of weeks ago.

    Any ideas?

    Same happens to me some times but connects after a restart of the router.

    I'm using a Netgear router? is that the same brand as yours?

    Did you try it on any other wireless network?

    You need to see will it work on any other networks as was said, if it dose not work then it could be hardware and if so you are ****ed not much you can do there, however if it dose not work on anyother networks just hope its software and try re-install it all! (sometimes that fixes it) if you can see the networks its a good thing most time its hardware you lose hole option to see any networks :(

    In addition to the above, the phone might just need a restart.

    Happens me at home regularly. Turn off wifi on the phone and back on. If that doesn't work reboot router.

    Thanks for all the replies. I tried everything suggested yesterday and nothing worked! But since a few mins ago everything seems to be fine and the phone can now connect again, its really strange as its never happened before!
