Anyone else having wifi problems? Mine works fine most of the time. But every now and then there is just no throughput. Still full signal and connected but nothing is being uploaded or downloaded it just sort of freezes. This causes apps that use the internet to hang even if its started working again.

iPad 3 (iOS6) and iPhone 4 (iOS5-something) and iPhone 3Gs, continue to work fine and always have on my wireless connection. So anyone get this issue? I have tried ganging DNS go 8.8.8.8, which kinds makes it work again, but eventually at some point it just completely fails again. Anyone else get this? Apple going to release a fix any time soon?
 
Issue seems to be Wifi encryption, the iPhone 5 even with iOS 6.0.1 update just can't handle it. Or only for short periods of time.

*edit* - Cant even login to Apple discussion forum to complain!

*edit2* - Changing router wifi encryption from WEP/WAP2 to WAP2 only seems to have helped. Will test it out for a bit.

Changing to static IP only works for a little while before it starts sticking again. Anyone know how to force a BT Home Hub 2.0 to update firmware?
