Of course, the real solution is to NOT reset your system clock back to 1970. Also, most previously connected WIFI hotspots will have a password required, so this is a RARE problem. . . but still, if you have not updated, take these guys' advice and do it.

A couple of off-the-wall reasons to update your iOS devices to iOS 9.3.1 if you haven't already. These reasons are pretty stupid, because for the most part, they are stupid user tricks such as setting your system clock to 1970 or before (which UNIX cannot handle due to definition errors in the way UNIX handles dates), but it is still a good idea to update iOS to 9.3.1 for security reasons. — PING!

Yeah, Apple bugged me to upgrade to 9.3, only to find out it has bugs, thus the 9.3.1 update.

If your phone or tablet is working fine, don’t immediately install the latest update. Let the other sucker experience the new bugs, not you. Wait a while & see what the public is experiencing with the new software.

This has been an unwritten rule in operating systems support for decades.

I love how once I downloaded and installed v9.3 on my phone like the next day it wanted me to take v9.3.1 :)

That’s quality control.
