I used to have that problem with my iPhone 4. I always had to reconnect whenever I got home. I transferred my settings from my 4 to my 5, and with the exact same settings, my 5 stays connected. Look in settings, wireless, and find your router, and on the button after the connect button, I think it is the SSID and it says "info". Compare the settings for that connection compared to the 4S.
Hope you get it figured out.

I think it is yes. The 5 connects upstairs in the house but as soon as we come downstairs it drops. The 4S keeps the connection going.
