I have an i5 that I have installed iOS 7 on. Since I have done this, I am having a problem with a wi-fi connection. I have an Airport Extreme at home, and it connects with no problem. But when I go to church, and try to join the wi-fi there, all that I get is the "spinner" It never connects, and I never had this issue on iOS 6. Any suggestions? TIA.

Have You Verified The Church's Wifi Is Working Properly?!?! If So Try Forgetting The Network & Starting A New With It... If That Doesn't Work, Reset The Network Settings... & If That Doesn't Work I'm Sure A Wiser Member Can Help...

In addition to what kristopherlarry wrote, the Church may have placed a limit on how many simultaneous connections it allows. Check with its administration to verify and/or to help troubleshoot the problem

Well, I got a 5c for my daughter and it also will not connect to the church wi-fi. My wife has a 4s with iOS 6 and it connects without fail. I got a cheap 4 for backup, and it had iOS 7 on it, and it also won't connect at the church. I took an iPad 2, and it had no problem. It seems that anything that I take that is on iOS 7 has a connection problem.

That's irking the heck out of me. I've read where some people are having Wi-Fi related problems with iOS 7, but I've yet to experience an inability to connect with either of my devices running IOS 7 so I don't know what to tell you. Did you happen to update your device to IOS 7 OTA (Over the air)?

No, I did it through iTunes. I called Apple, and they told me that since I could connect to my home network, then nothing was wrong with the phones. It is just strange to me that everything I have ever had would work up until I got iOS 7.
