Ipad 4 wifi connection issues

Hi everyone,
I have had my ipad 4 for about a year now, but recently an issue has become apparent: I have trouble connecting to the internet!
At home, the internet works fine, but I've started noticing a problem at school (college) and public areas, like starbucks- it simply would take forever to connect. Other times, it would not be able to even find the signal, though my laptop and iphone 4s/5s would work just fine.
Now I've been staying in Iceland for the past month, the issue has been extremely frustrating. I cannot connect to any of the wifi connections, though my laptop and iphone 5s work fine. The ipad will recognize the signal, but when I try to connect it would say "unable to connect to network".
I have tried resetting network settings, resetting my whole ipad, and turning my device on and off.
I cannot do anything with wifi routers, since I am always trying to use public wifi.
My ipad can use my iphone's hotspot just fine,.
It has been updated to the latest iOS.
Thanks!

Hello jay_ne,
It sounds like you are not able to connect to any Wi-Fi networks with your iPad even after restarting, resetting, and resetting the network settings. I can definitely see how that would be frustrating. Great troubleshooting so far, and because of what you have already done, I would next back up your iPad to your computer with this article:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
And restore it from your backup with this article to delete and reinstall the iOS software. First set it up as a new device, and test the issue. If it works fine, then restore from your backup and verify it still works.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Major iPad 3 WiFi connection issues since 5.1.1 update

Prior to the 5.1.1 update (which ironically was supposed to fix wifi issues), my iPad 3 worked great. Since the update it has been a complete disaster.
Even though it always shows a strong wifi connection, certain apps seem to have no connection while others work fine. Safari usually works ok, although sometimes pictures won't show up - just a small box in the corner. Facebook app always seems to have issues as does Pandora. The biggest problem is the App Store or iTunes which say it cannot connect even though Safari works fine at the same time. Ive tried reconnecting, rebooting, and I even bought a new router since I thought maybe my old one was causing the problem.
Is Apple fessing up to this issue? I have to believe it is a software/firmware issue since before the update everthing worked fine.

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.

Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Ipad 3 WiFi connectivity issues

All right.. this might be a two part problem. I was attempting to enable restrictions, and after I entered the passcode twice and tapped "Enable restrictions," it asked me to enter a new passcode again. Without doing much checking, I decided to resort to "Reset All Settings." After doing this, I'm unable to connect to any WiFi networks. I did this while at my in-laws house, and thought perhaps it was something flukey with their router.. however, after returning home, I ran into the same issue.
When I attempt to connect, I get "Incorrect password for "<my network>", and it says "Failed to join "<my network>" at the top of the password entry box. I have two sons with iPads, and I was able to disconnect and reconnect to the wireless network with no issue on theirs. I set up a secure guest network, and was able to log in with my sons' iPads, but not mine. Same issue.. I enter the password, and it comes back with "Incorrect password..."
When I set up an unsecure network, I'm able to join.and use as normal. There must be a settings issue that I'm overlooking somewhere, but I can't seem to find it or figure out how to find it while I search the wasteland of Google search results. Any help would be most appreciated.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
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)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Wifi Connection issue on iPad 3 when upgraded to iOS 8 onwards

Hi,
I am using iPad 3 from last one year. I didn't faced any issues with old versions of IOS. But after update my iPad OS to 8, I am facing Wifi Connectivity issue. Automatically Disconnecting Wifi when opened third party apps which need internet connectivity. I thought this may fixed in version 8.0.2 but not FIXED. And again I thought it may fixed in version 8.1 but not FIXED. This making too much headache. I want to go back to 7.1.2, Please help me in this issue.
Thanks,
Vijay

Wifi connectivity issues iPad 2.. Any fixes yet?

I have issues keeping a connection to my home network. No, I don't have an airport router (just in case that comes up). My iPad connects, but loses signal strength, even though I'm only a few feet away from the router, and sometimes just disconnects altogether. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a fix yet. I noticed there are quite a few users having similar troubles, but haven't seen anyone actually ask or receive concrete feedback regarding a fix.

Are there any known issues with iPad wifi connections to Comcast routers

I consistently get the "unable to join network " error when trying to connect to my Comcast all in one router. My other laptops and smartphones connect without issue. I'm using 32GB iPad2 with wi-fi + 3G. Coincidentally I switched to comast at the same time I did the 5.1.1 update. Prior to the switch i had a fios router and 5.0 OS version. I've tried resetting the network info on the iPad and I've reset the router as well. I can see the network just cant connect to it.

IPad WiFi Connection Problems - WiFi Symbol Appears With Full Bars but I Don't Get A Checkmark?

I was using the iPad one day and then all of a sudden it stopped connecting to the internet. The network at this hotel is very good and I've asked them about their router so it is not the router's problem.
I go to the Settings and tap on Wi-Fi then I tap on the hotel network. After a few seconds, it says the network name beside the Wi-Fi tab and it gives me the WiFi symbol showing 3 bars. But then I never get the checkmark or tick saying everything is connected. I try going online and it says the iPad is not connected to the internet. I've tried an iPhone and it connected and got a checkmark in a few seconds. I've talked to the front desk and he took out his phone and showed me that he could connect, he even opened a page without any problems at all.
I've been trying to find a solution for this for a long time. I've been searching Google over and over again. I turned Airplane Mode on for 1 minute, I've tried Resetting my Network settings, I've tried forgetting the network and reconnecting again, I've tried removing all restrictions from the iPad, I've rebooted the iPad A LOT, etc.
So this is my problem for people who don't want to read the whole message:
1. I can't connect to the internet with the iPad
2. It shows the WiFi symbol saying its connected but I never get the checkmark or tick.
3. It's not the router problem.
4. I've tried other networks and it doesn't work. It just keeps on showing that loading circle right beside the network name.
5. Do any of you know what this problem is? Or do you have a solution?
Thank you for reading this and have a great day

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) 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 or Channel 6 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.

HP Slate 21 Pro: WiFi connection issues

Hi,
I recently ordered two HP Slate 21 Pro devices. Unfortunately, both of them have WiFi connection issues. After some time the properly configured WiFi connection will be dropped, which results in connectionless devices. The WiFi AP is disabled after this, and so a timed reconnect will not succeed.
After inspecting the Logcat I found following lines:
12-05 08:56:58.939 V/EthernetStateTracker(675): report interface is up for eth0
12-05 08:56:58.939 I/EthernetStateTracker(675): interface up event, kick off connection request
12-05 08:56:58.939 I/EthernetStateTracker(675): interface up but ethernet is disabled, stop this interface
12-05 08:56:58.939 I/EthernetStateTracker(675): stop dhcp and interface
12-05 08:56:58.947 V/EthernetStateTracker(675): report interface is up for eth0
12-05 08:56:58.948 I/EthernetStateTracker(675): interface up event, kick off connection request
12-05 08:56:58.948 I/EthernetStateTracker(675): interface up but ethernet is disabled, stop this interface
12-05 08:56:58.954 I/EthernetStateTracker(675): report new state DISCONNECTED on dev eth0
12-05 08:56:58.954 V/EthernetStateTracker(675): update network state tracker
12-05 08:56:58.954 V/EthernetStateTracker(675): Ethernet is disabled, ignore state change event
12-05 08:56:59.080 D/ConnectivityService(675): ConnectivityChange for WIFI: DISCONNECTED/DISCONNECTED
12-05 08:56:59.080 D/ConnectivityService(675): Attempting to switch to BLUETOOTH_TETHER
12-05 08:56:59.080 V/EthernetStateTracker(675): reconnect +++
12-05 08:56:59.080 D/ConnectivityService(675): Attempting to switch to ETHERNET
12-05 08:56:59.094 D/ConnectivityService(675): resetConnections(wlan0, 3)
12-05 08:56:59.201 I/EthernetStateTracker(675): stop dhcp and interface
12-05 08:56:59.208 D/Nat464Xlat(675): requiresClat: netType=1, hasIPv4Address=false
12-05 08:56:59.208 D/ConnectivityService(675): handleInetConditionChange: no active default network - ignore
Especially this line:
12-05 08:56:59.080 D/ConnectivityService(675): ConnectivityChange for WIFI: DISCONNECTED/DISCONNECTED
Is this issue already known? Has someone a solution for me?
Thanks in advance,
Christian

That really shouldn't affect it.
I'm a little stumped because I haven't seen this issue with this device before. The only similar issue I found was this, and it's unresolved.
Have you tried doing a hard reboot of the Slate 21?

Bad corporate wifi connection issues

Hi,
I've experienced a corporate wifi connection issue.
Having the issue on two z3compacts (latest kitkat build) and also with a Z3 (also latest kitkat build).
connection details:
EAP-Method: PEAP
Phase 2-Auth: MSCHAPV2
CA-Certs: no
Identity: yes
Password: yes
Issue is the following if you roaming between APs it happens the the smartphones jumps to a next AP with better signal but it is not possible to connect to the wifi.
There are two workarounds:
1. re-enter the password for the connection again
2. turn on airplane mode and turn it off again
The state is very annoying.
We've tested various Samsung and Nexus smartphones and we couldn't experienced that issue.
Any of you experienced the same?
Br,
Michael

Hi Phy,
thanks for that hint!
Can't believe anymore that it is a network component issue...because,
We have 500 android devices integrated (LG, Samsung, Nexus) and also nearly 4300 iPhones (4s, 5c, 5s and 6 (IOS7-8))
Besides them three xperia Z3 devices for testing purpose.
We only experienced this issue with the xperia devices.
Actually we're observing this issue over a month now.
We checked also the wifi controler logs and we saw that the xperia devices quit connections and connections tries by themselves.
Br,
Michael

Still having WiFi connectivity issues. What can I do to fix this?

I have the new Macbook Air 2013, and since day one i have had WiFi connectivity issues. I know that this problem has been worked on and that a recent release of an update could help fix this problem. However; nothing for me has changed. I connect to my home internet and sooner or later my MBA disconnects and i have to reconnect it by either turning the WiFi on and off or going into network diagnostics. The time of my Air actually being connected varies from a coulpe second to a couple minutes and occasionally I may get 30 to 45 minutes before a disconnect.
If you could help it would be much appreciated.

That statement is unfounded, actually. ALL of those currently with wifi issues are able to connect via their iphone hotspot, or by means of their homebase AIRPORT base station, .....indicative of a software/ firmware issue.
Most dont consider a minor software/firmware issue an empirical defect, anymoreso than "forgetting something" is an empirical defect in a human being is.
The "speaker issue" is now uttterly proven a simple software issue, soon to be fixed, same is the case with the wifi issue.
You're forgetting that Apples 802AC wifi is "next generation" 'tomorrows' technology. That a minor bug exists, soon to be fixed, is understandable. Look on the bright side, ....the Macbook AIR is #1 seller and most beloved superbook out there for many reasons

Wifi Connectivity Issues, how to Downgrade

I am using a 13 inch macbook late 2007 model running snow leopard 10.6.4 My problem is that after waking my macbook from sleep my wifi errors and has the connection timed out or the invalid password when it is correct. My roommates are able to connect to the router perfectly fine and My airport can connect to my home network as well as the campus network. I have tried the various fixes including trashing the system config folder, adding a new location, deleting locations, adding and removing airport, adding and removing preferred network locations, repairing disk permissions. Im sick and tired of trying to find a work around to this problem. I have time machine enabled but I don't want to roll my computer back an entire year just to fix wifi connectivity issues. Is there a way to downgrade without losing my applications, and personal files. No i didn't make a back up before install, I just want a to downgrade to 10.6.3 which I never had connectivity issues, is this possible?

It is managed by apple but no direct responses are from apple, yes i have had problems in the past with arrogance and users showing no respect for "noobs". The genius bar is located 2 hours away and when I do have access im skeptical to leave my macbook with them because i NEED it for school work. But my intentions weren't to be negative but to shed light on a problem. I was being sincere and sometimes the truth is negative; there is most certainly a need because without bringing attention to problems how is anything going to get solved or changed? Also if you reread what i posted it states "Finally a forum where members AREN'T arrogant", meaning that I WASN'T referring to this forum.
