I had a customer call with a similar sounding issue today, but they have a Linksys E1550 (I think that was a crappy special for Best Buy model.) Oddly, their WiFi-only iPad is fine.

FWIW, there has been much bitching on Apple forums about WiFi problems ever since the iOS 8 upgrade for older iPhones.

I've seen apple phones that seemed to have wireless compatibility issues with some routers' older firmware - try a firmware update?

    Got this email from the wife of one of our landlords.

    "Hey, I'm Bill xxxxxx's wife, Barb. I had an Apple phone last year
    and had no problems connecting to the wireless. A couple months
    ago, it wouldn't let me connect here at home. I am able to connect
    to any other wireless anywhere, except here. At first, I thought
    it was my phone maybe with some updating issues. Bought a new
    Apple phone today. Wireless worked fine in the store. Once I got
    home, I am still unable to connect. The wireless works in the
    house with all other devices. Can you tell me if this is fixable? "

    Any suggestions? They currently have a Netgear router if that
    helps. Normally I would tell them to call Apple but we have a
    tower in their field in exchange for free internet at their house.
