Ah, right. I suspected it would work flawlessly on your carrier's network. Of course, that's not an ideal way to listen but it does jive with my understanding that there are plenty of WI-FI issues on the iPhone 5. What I don't understand is why some people are experiencing them, but not others. I was testing this with a couple people on list a while back on iOS 6 and they could definitely reproduce my results. It was fixed for some people on iOS 6.0.1 but not for others. Now with iOS 6.1, it's completely cleared up for me but not for you. This is curious. I hope Apple can diagnose this for you. They should be able to provide you with a device that works correctly.
