iPhone 5c through assurion drops wifi
rym

I made a foolish decision and decided instead of fixing my screen to make a claim through the insurance offered through Verizon

Unfortunately now my iPhone fails to stay logged into my home wifi or shows not a good connection then none and goes to 3 g or let settings.  When going back to sign in to wifi where there should be my wifi and about 10 other choice it finds none

I did all suggested fixes on the apple site from 2014 and nothing worked.  The only thing that worked was switching over to the 5 g  wifi.  It now has full signal.  Why is this happening?  Why are other apple products etc working well on other setting?  How do I fix this?  Does this need to be fixed?  I do t think it is fair that I must turn my cellular off to prevent an overage.  Kinda defeats the purpose of this phone. Suggestions please,  only had this phone on since Friday

I would like to think that it's a defect in the phone. I have issued a claim like that through another carrier (Sprint with the Epic 4G) and it wouldn't connect to wifi, and 4G WiMaxx antenna wasn't working. I had to take it to the sprint store. Have you tried going into the actual store?

5G?   Do you mean only 5 ghz wifi ?

you should immediately report the replacement is defective and get another one.
