If you're using Siri on iPhone 4S since yesterday you've probably encountered this error. The moment all Siri can manage to come up with is "Sorry, I'm having trouble connecting to the network." This guide will show you how to fix Siri can't connect to network error.
If there's anything that has customers lining up outside Apple stores to get their hands on a new iPhone 4S, its Siri. This amazing voice assistant lives inside your iPhone 4S and can accomplish your tasks for you, all you need to do is say it out loud. Siri is interactive as well, it can answer your questions quite cleverly. Yes, you can talk dirty to Siri as well, but she's intelligent enough to give the right response.
However, that's not the point. The fact is that we still have to fix Siri can't connect to network error. Why are you facing this error in the first place? Well by now there are over a million iPhone 4S units in hands of consumers in seven countries all of which are bombarding Apple's servers by firing up Siri whenever they feel like. While they're at their right to do so, it looks like the back-end servers are having a hard time coping with such a high volume of queries.
While Siri's performance solely depends upon the competence of its servers, there's a small procedure that you can perform on your iPhone 4S that just might fix Siri can't connect to network error for you.
Step 1: Head over to the Settings.app and turn off Siri by going to the General tab.
Step 2: Reset all network settings on your iPhone 4S by going to Settings.app then General followed by Reset and Reset Network Settings
Step 3: Go to the Settings.app once again and turn Siri back on
We've found this procedure to be effective albeit for a number of users. You can try this if you're constantly encountering the Siri can't connect to network error, basically because you have nothing to lose. It might work for you, but if it doesn't be sure that the issue is prevalent due to server overload only.
We just hope that Apple takes care of those servers soon, as iPhone 4S will begin shipping to over 20 countries merely 10 days from now. One can only imagine how hard it would be for servers who already have trouble coping with over 1 million iPhone 4S units, trying to cope up with millions of iPhone 4S units worldwide.
