Actually, for the iPhone—an indispensable part of our lives—the stability of the network is what it has to guarantee to provide people with an overall easy experience. However, most users have reported frequent network connection drops by their iPhones—not only disturbing daily communication but sometimes leading to delays in important tasks. So the article elaborates on five aspects of how to resolve the problem of an iPhone often losing the network connection and help users restore a stable network experience.
Network Settings Checkout and Optimization
1.Forget Wi-Fi, Reconnect: Under “Settings” on your iPhone, tap “Wi-Fi.” Long-press the connected Wi-Fi network and hit “Forget This Network.” Again, find and reconnect to the very same Wi-Fi network by entering the correct passcode. In doing so, one can overcome issues that may stem from incorrect or conflicting network settings by refreshing the Wi-Fi connection.
2.Switch on/off airplane mode:Operation Method: Switch on “Aeroplane Mode” from either the Control Center or “Settings.” Switch on airplane mode and switch it off after a few seconds.
Effect: Enabling and turning off airplane mode resets the network settings of the device, and often it fixes many momentary problems in the networking.
3.Check and upgrade the iOS system:Operation Method: Enter “Settings” and find “General.” Tap “Software Update” to check for the latest system upgrade in iOS. You can install the new system if an upgrade is available.
Importance: Updates to iOS usually contain network performance optimizations and bug fixes. Keeping your device running with the latest version of the system reduces the occurrence of network issues to a minimum.
Diagnose hardware problems and physical conditions.
1.Router and its Signal Strength
Tip: Keep the router in an open area with as few obstacles as possible (and the fewest sources of electronic interference, such as microwaves and cordless phones).
Test: Observe signal strength and channel crowding with a Wi-Fi analyzer app. If need be, change or upgrade your router.
2.SIM card and cellular network checking
Check: if your SIM card is properly inserted and clean. Also, go to “Settings” → “Cellular” and see if the cellular data settings are correct.
Call Operator: If it still doesn’t work, it must be a network problem from the side of the carrier. The customer service representative will have to be contacted to have the problem either consulted or repaired.
3.Consider the physical environment.
See: whether the network connection fails at certain places or occasions, like the elevator, the subway tunnel, and those places that have bad signal coverage.
Solution: Change the way we get connected in these regions. For example, by cellular data, or just wait until getting into the area with a better Wi-Fi signal.
Manage your apps
1.Understand How to Clear Background Apps
Double-tap the Home button or swipe up from the bottom of the screen. In the multitasking view, swipe the app cards up to turn them off in the background. This is because many apps running in the background may consume a lot of network resources, thus making the network unstable.
2.Check and turn off any unnecessary apps to refresh.
Settings: Go to “Settings” → “General” → “Background App Refresh” and turn off Refresh for apps not in use. It helps to reduce network consumption when apps are refreshing data in the background and improves stability in network connectivity.
3.Update and delete problematic apps.
Update: Be updating regularly to have the latest version of the app to prevent all network incompatibility issues.
Delete: If there is an app that seems to cause issues over and over with your network connection, delete it, and then reinstall it.
Restart and reset your device.
1.Restart your iPhone
Action: Depending on one’s iPhone model, choose the correct method to restart—for example, by long-pressing the power button or using a combination of the side and volume buttons.
Effect: The system comes alive with a reboot; transient issues with the software or the system are resolved, and your network connections are restored.
2.Reset Network Settings
Action: Go to “Settings” -> “General” -> “Transfer or Reset iPhone” -> “Reset” -> “Reset Network Settings.”.
Note: It deletes every network setting, from Wi-Fi to Bluetooth, cellular data, etc. All settings revert and would have to be reconfigured.
3.Consider resetting back to the factory setting.
Note: Please attempt this only after the above process has been tried out and proved fruitless. Note that all data will be deleted; hence, ensure you back up your data.
