Problems with WiFi? Try renewing DHCP lease

Posted 3 August 2007 @ 9am in Troubleshooting

In newly revised Knowledge Base article #305715, Apple provides a two-step process that can resolve issues in many instances when the iPhone is connected via WiFi:

  1. “Tap Settings > Wi-Fi Networks, then pick the network.
  2. “In the DHCP panel, select the Renew Lease button.”

The article details solutions to a number of other WiFi issues as well, including persistent reversion to EDGE.

Every once in while i get bumped off of wi-fi that’s using WPA. the password is correct and I’ve connected to the network many times, but I have to go in and hit “forget network” and then enter in the password again and it’s fine.
