Here do this then you can go ahead do a fresh install of 7. This will be some extra steps but be worth it.

Entering DFU Mode (Official Instructions)
Plug your device into your computer.
Turn off the device.
Hold the Power button for 3 seconds
Hold the Home button without releasing the Power button for 10 seconds
Release the Power Button but keep holding the Home button
Keep holding the Home button until you are alerted by iTunes saying that it has detected a device in Recovery Mode

Turn WiFi off. Turn it on again.

I was unable to connect to my home WiFi, but could connect to my MiFi and work WiFi (go figure). I restarted the phone...same thing. I even rebooted my router! Finally I turned off WiFi and turned it on again and was able to connect right away.

Hi all, need help currently hav 4s on iOS 7.0.2 when I try to connect to wifi I can't accept the certificate, I click it but nothing happens. Other forums say it'll be fixed in beta version 2 but that's what I'm running 7.0.2

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Mine just doesn't like staying connected.. Almost like it's out of range but I'm not...

1. Reboot your Wireless Router
2. Reboot your iPhone
3. Go to Settings>General>Reset and then select "Reset All Network Settings"

I'm having to restart my home router every night when I get home from work. I've never had problems with my phones not connecting to my home network. I'm about ready to take my new 5s back to the store.
