+1 to this Bob. I lost a weekend to trouble-shooting my home network
when the only way I could get my iPhone 4 with iOS 6 to receive email
was to turn off the wi-fi and let it connect over 3G. I regularly get
YouTube videos stalling or downloads not completing when at home on
wi-fi but as soon as I switch to 3G it all comes good again.

Some days it works and some days it doesn't.

Matt.

I've had this experience with both my iPad3 and iPhone4 since putting 
IOS6 on them.  Usually works, but not always.

..and the personal hotspot functionality - shot to hell in IOS6 - so 
bad I use a USB cable to tether to my laptop now rather than WiFi.
