Hi

I'm only getting two bars (dots) on the wifi strength indicator on my new iPhone. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks

Jay
 
I am on the 7 plus too. Do you experience weaker wifi?

On a 7 Plus with Verizon...

My WiFi shows full bars and works mostly fine, though it Speedtests a bit slower than my 6s Plus (130 Mbps vs 170 mbps).

My Cellular connection is garbage.
 
works quite good on my 7 :

tested with an Ubiquiti UAP-AC-LR on the 5GHz 867Mbps network.
 
I also have a 7 plus with weak WiFi. When I say weak, I don't really mean that it is slow, but the range is quite a bit less than my 6 plus was. I have noticed this while out in my shop. With my 6 plus, I can get WiFi signal really easy. Now with the 7 plus I only get about 10 feet through the door and my signal drops. Has apple or anybody addressed this issue yet?
