After dropping my ipad, I can only get Internet connection if I sit at my router, any suggestions?

Hi all,
I have a 32gb ipad 2. I dropped it about half an hour ago. When I sit at my router, I get full bars of connection. Every step I take away from my (BT) router my connection rapidly decreases, until about 3 metres away, the connection cuts out completely. In my settings, my router icon only appears when I'm directly in front of my router. Should I take it to the Genius Bar? Please help! Thanks

Some iPad users have been able to revive their dropped iPad. Turn the iPad over and give it a HARD SLAP on the back. May take several slaps.

No answer but marking as answered because I want to clear my unresolved questions.

After 2.3 update I can't get 3G to come on or stay one. Any suggestions ?

I noticed that since the 2.3 update that I can't seem to get 3G to activate. I do have data roaming on.
Sometimes when I turn off wifi the 3G symbol flashes, but it goes away quickly.
This happens regardless of location, but I am testing it at home where I did have 3G coverage in the past. So I expect it to work.
Any suggestions?
thx

This is stupid.
I did the *228 - 2 option a few days ago without an issues. Now when I try *228 it fails to dial and tells me to contact customer service. Hard to do without a working phone.
**bleep** at VZ and Moto need to do a better job with software updates. Between these issues and the new data plans i will be willing to go elsewhere when the contact is up.
Going to reboot phone and see if that helps.

wow - guess VZ has some auto-censor software going for all posts and you get "**bleep** " if you offend them. lol

Not sure what Cisco is but if you are having problems with your wifi this link might help
On the iPad... tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset NetworkSettings.

I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it. Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there. The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple. They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one. From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate. And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one. Try a new one. Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port.

Monmere-
Also check the print queue to see if a print job has gotten stuck. Click the home button twice and you should see recently used programs across the bottom of the screen. Scroll across to find the print queue.

Have done all the trouble shooting connection but my iPad still can not get wifi connection

i have done all the trouble shooting connection but mu iPAd still can not get wifi connection

Hi Jo,
Each router is a little different but here are the basics: login to the router using the administrator account, should have that info from the installer, and then you should find something like security settings, or it may be advanced security. There will be a setting to the effect of limiting access, or it may say allow Mac address authentication, or admit the Mac addresses in the table...if that is switched on, you can just switch it off and that will allow any wireless device to attach. If you want to keep it on, then you have to enter the Mac address for the device you want to use for access. In the case of the iPad, go to Settings > General > About > WiFi Address (another way of saying Mac address). Enter that very long sequence in the router's Mac address acceptance table and that should take care of things.
Using the Mac address does not change any of the email settings, just limits attaching to the router in the first place.
If you are already getting email, you must be attaching already so this should not be an issue. If you are having email issues, such as receive but not send, you may not have the outgoing server set correctly: Settings > Mail > Account > Outgoing server name (usually an SMTP server) and you may have to go to the advanced settings to enter the outgoing password (normally the same as the account/incoming password) and then check to see if SSL is ON or OFF...most common email services say to set to OFF.

Probably not but more information will be needed before making suggestions. Please provide as much as you are able of the the following
Blackberry Model.
Carrier Name.
Do you have a Data Plan?
Operating System Version go to Menu > Options > About - it looks like v5.0.0.681
Memory for Device and SD Card Options > Memory
Any error statement or code.
The Exact nature of problem - the more info the better.
When this started and whether it started just after an update or new App download and which App/s theme/s download.

I have a Canon Vixia HV30 camera and can't get Final Cut Pro x to recognize it. Any suggestions?

How can I get Final Cut ProX to recognize my Canon Vixia HV30 camera?

Does your Mac have a FW 800 port? If it does, use a 4 pin to 9 pin connection. If you have only Thunderbolt, use a FW>Tb adaptor. Either way, your Mac should see the camera. If it does, so will FCP.

Can't get internet connection via ethernet

I have had 3 computers, 1 pc and 2 Macs, networked through ethernet for two years. Never had problems until yesterday. We just can't get on the internet on the Macs. Both macs say "Your computer isn't connected." Talked to D-Link router, everything was fine. Macs recognize IP and all numbers, so they told us to call Apple. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Possibly:
reboot the macs.
check the cables.
reboot the router.
reboot the dsl/cable/whatever modem.
Are you getting a valid Ip ddress from the D-Link (192.168.xx.xx, or is it a 169.xxx.xxx.xxx?)
In Network utilities, can you ping an outside IP by name? Ping an outside site by IP by number? Ping the router IP? Ping the PC?
Reset Safari...

How can I get internet connectivity with my iPod Touch cabled to my PC?

Most devices "tether" to a computer (PC or iMac) for internet connection. I cannot find any reference in the user manual on getting internet access from the connected PC to the "tethered" ipod touch. How can I accomplish this?

Hi,
The iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS support Internet tethering over a USB cable, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3574.
The iPod touch can connect over a Wi-Fi network, as mentioned here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2031.
If your PC has a wireless card, you may be able to create an Ad-Hoc Wi-Fi network that can share the Internet access to the iPod touch.
You can also get a wireless router, like an Airport base station http://www.apple.com/wifi/.

Can't get internet connection

Instead of shutting my phone off last night I chose sleep mode to see how this would compare. However once the phone was back on I cannot access any app that requires the internet. Any thoughts as to how I can fix this?

Do you have Menu / Settings / battery & data manager / Data Saver <- turned OFF?
Also, check:
menu / Settings / battery & data manager / Data Delivery .. make sure DATA ENABLED is checked, and DATA ROAMING as well
