Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

What router are you using? make/model/version
What security type are you using? If it is WEP then symbolic (non hex) keys may be converted to hex in different ways by different operating systems. Is your laptop a Windows PC?
If you are using WEP then drop it and move to WPA2. WEP has been deprecated by the WiFi alliance since 2004 as insecure (it can be hacked in seconds). -
I have forgotten my passcode for ipad and itunes is asking passcode to be entered - even after following directions for computers not synced... multiple times, but iTunes is not "detecting a device in recovery mode." What do I do now?
DFU Restore
This will very likley result in loss of data.
Plug the iPhone into the computer.
Ensure that it is running the latest version of iTunes and that it has access to the internet.
Press and hold both the home and sleep/wake buttons for exactly eight seconds.
Release only the sleep/wake button but continue to hold the home button for another five seconds.
Let go of the home button, then look at the computer screen for an instructional popup.
The popup should say "iTunes has detected a device in recovery mode. . .(etc)" Click accept to all boxes and let iTunes download and install all of the latest device Firmware and Software.
If no popup appears, repeat the above DFU instructions. If you've never done a DFU, it may take about three attempts to get the timing right. -
I have activated the genius for Ipad and the message that It was a success never disappears . It is impossible to access the itunes or apple store. What can I do?
You have encounter Activation Lock, the antitheft feature of the iPhone. The previous owner did not remove the phone from their account. The phone cannot be used until they do. Return to the store and let them sort this out. It is very unusual for someone to "forget" to disable activation lock, as it is necessary to do so to erase personal information on the phone. So it is quite likely you bought a stolen phone.

4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)

Can someone please help me find out to get internet on my ipad2 when I will be out of town and the house does not have internet service? Is there any type of aircard I can buy without a long term contract. I use At & T.
There are mobile hotspots that you can buy and you can purchase a data plan to use the hotspot with. I have the Verizon MIF2200 hotspot and it works quite well. My iPad is WiFi only as well and bought the iPad, the hotspot and the data plan all from Verizon. My plan is month to month but it will renew every month unless I cancel the plan - but I do not have a contract at all to worry about cancelling.
Take a look for yourself.

Hi everyone,
I recently just bought an iPad air and have tried to connect it to my home BT Hub 5 wifi. It refuses to work.. I've been on the phone to Apple and BT support. I see from other posts that apparently lots of people have had this problem too. I've tried all the separating the 2.4 and 5 GHz signals, reseting settings etc etc..
I'm now considering switching who I get my broadband from.. can anyone recommend which is a stable broadband supplier for iPad and Macbook Pro?
I can't believe they charge so much money and the thing doesn't work!! Unbelievable..
Thanks
Andyfinally got to the bottom of it, the iPad can't handle the two wave bands going at the same time, so if you disable the 5GHz and leave the 2.4GHz one running, it works... Took hours on tech support to finally get it going!
hope this helps someone... -
Can you purchace a wifi card for the iPad 2?
I'm not sure what you mean. All iPads have WiFi built in. If you wish to connect to a cell network from a WiFi-only iPad, then you can use either a MiFi device as tonefox suggested or use a cellphone which supports Personal Hotspot (AKA "tethering").
If that's not what you mean, please post back and clarify.
Regards. -

There is no such thing for the iPad AFAIK. You could, however, get a signal booster for your wireless router.

Setting up wifi for ipad with an existing hard wired network
Greets all.
Got my aged mother in law an ipad so her bad eyes could read ebooks. Only way she can download new books is with a wifi connection. Trouble is, at her house My aged father in law had a hard wired dsl connection to the internet with Windows PCs. Can I install a wifi network in her house and still leave the existing hard wired network (all commputers connected via cat5) intact? I only need the wifi connection for the ipad. That said; what do I need to make this happen besides a wireless router. Ive heard the Airport Extreme gets good reviews. I only have pc experience and have a linksys router at my own house for my wifi network. So please...can the wifi ipad connection and hard wired dsl connection peacefully coexist and if so how do I go about setting it up? Thanks much!Thank you! Thank you! Awesome! I've been trying to find an explanation for this is laymen's terms (I'm new to Mac and wi-fi networks) and this answered my question exactly. I have an iMac I want to keep its wired connection, and the iPad to run off wi-fi. Sounds like the Airport Extreme is the way to go, but I only say that because it's an Apple product.
What would be the advantage/disadvantage with going with something like DLink or Linksys? Or as long as I buy something with the 10/100 802.11b/g support, should I be okay.
Thanks again! -
Follow this to fix wifi for iPad
Hello all I was in this forum yesterday trying to fix the WiFi connection on my iPad. This is what I have found to fix the issue.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3304
I followed the steps as listed by Apple and all has been good. I do know that adding the update to 3.2.2 os worked the best. I thought that I would post this here to help others. Now if this does not work I guess that you should take it in to Apple.Interesting about the low power.
My group just installed an Alcatel-Lucent wireless solution for a new facility that consists of an OAW-6000 wireless switch and 28 AP125 a/b/g/n thin-APs. Am running production build v3.4.2.5 of the switch software, which when installed triggers updates to all AP.s
Information on APs found here:
http://enterprise.alcatel-lucent.com/?product=WLANAP124&page=overview
Information in wireless switch found here:
http://enterprise.alcatel-lucent.com/?product=WLAN6000&page=overview
Just got my iPad Tuesday to assist with work, so far working out very well. When I was in the building earlier this morning I had no problems with connectivity to the wireless network - the iPad battery was in the range ~50-90% during the morning and early afternoon.
I noticed later this afternoon that when moving around to different parts of the building, connectivity was "spotty", with messages indicating that the iPad was unable to connect to a server, web-site, etc. The iPad battery was in the range ~10-20% during the late afternoon.
These connectivity messages appeared to be more frequent as the iPad battery drained lower and lower. I re-booted the wireless switch, which did not clear the problem the iPad was experiencing.
I drained the iPad battery down completely and plugged the iPad in to charge. I will see how a fully charged iPad accesses the network on Monday. -

Any 3gs user with ios5 update have trouble with wifi?
After updating to ios5, the wifi reception is weak. I get only a couple pf bars even in the same room as the router. And once I setp out of the room, I get no signal. The GPS cannot lock on my position.
I have the smae problem, my old 2G phone and iTouch both have great signal throughout the house but my 3GS does not. And It was not the case before upgrade to iso5. Also I use my maps a lot and never had any trouble getting lock on signal before ios5 upgrade. Now it will not lock on my position. I use the maps feature exclusively for getting around and checking travel time and traffic. Is there any soultion?
