Apple's iOS 6.1.1 networking failures continue
OK, so here's the good news. When Apple released iOS 6.1.1 last week it did fix the problem some European phone users were having with 3G connections. The bad news is that iOS's other network-related problems persist.

To start with the least bad news, iOS 6.1x-powered iPhones and iPads can still give some Microsoft Exchange servers fits. Left unattended, this will cause servers to slow to a crawl -- with Apple devices unable to get mail or update their calendars.
According to Microsoft, the first thing an Apple user should try is to stop using Exchange to update their calenders. If that doesn't work, Microsoft suggests that users work with their Exchange administrator to uninstall and re-install their Exchange account. If that doesn't help, Exchange sysops are encouraged to first throttle iPhone and iPad users' access to Exchange and, as a last resort, to block iOS 6.1 users from Exchange.
