IPad Fails To Connect To Netgear
My wife and I are on vacation at a location which has Wifi through a Netgear Router (I know this because that's what the connection says. I have no access to this router, so I can make no modifications to it.).
All of our devices connect to the internet just fine (including my wife's iPhone 4, my iPhone 5, my iPad Retina, and MacBook Pro. However, my wife's 1st gen iPad will not connect at all. When "Netgear" appears in WiFi settings, and we select it, the spinning symbol appears but it never stops and never connects.
I have rebooted the iPad.
I have 'forgotten' the "Netgear" network.
Wiped the Network settings.
I have even attempted to connect to the internet through my MacBook Pro (an art which still escapes me).
Her iPad has the latest version of iOS available for this model.
Any assistance would be appreciated - the sooner the better since we are only here a few more days.
Thanks
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

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

IPad fails to connect to WiFi after OTA update to iOS 6
After the OTA update to iOS 6 my new iPad fails to connect to my WiFi network at home. My LANCOM router reports the following issue:

Interface: WLAN-1
Ereignis: Rejected Association from WLAN station xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx []: ()

Grund: Cannot support all requested capabilities in Capability Information field
It has worked flawlessly in the past with iOS 5 on my new iPad and iPhone 4. At the moment I hestitate to update my iPhone too.
Anyone with the same issue or an idea how to fix it?

IPad Fails to connect to wifi, but shows the wifi icon
My company just installed a wireless network in our building. I was very excited because I can finally use my iPad in meetings and ditch the IBM laptop. However, it does not want to connect to the wireless network. Let me try to explain what happens.
BTW,
1. It is a new network so all the routers have the most up to date firmware.
2. I have tried to connect with my iPad2 and iPad both without success. The iPad was recently wiped clean and set up for my son.
3. I can connect to my home network, my sprint mifi card, and other networks (hotels, starbucks) with no problem.
4. Laptops can connect with out issue to the network.
5. Others have been able to connect their iPhone to the network.
6. One other person could not connect their iPod Touch to the network. He gets the same response that I do. I don't know anyone else with an iPad that works in my building. However see item two above.
7. It is using WPA security.
8. I have reset network settings numerous times on both iPads and rebooted both iPads numerous times.
9. I am able to connect to another wifi network in our building. Both networks use the same security and password.
This is what happens:
1. Go to Settings -> Wi-Fi and choose my companies wireless network.
2. It asks for the password and I type it in (Trust me I am typing it in correctly. I have done it about a hundred times now.)
3. Recieve the message "Unable to join the network," I hit Dismiss and Cancel.
4. I get the Checkmark next to the wireless network I just tried to join. If you click the blue arrow I get an IP address, but NO "Forget This Network" Option. I also have the wifi icon next to the word iPad in the upper left corner of the screen. It will also not load any Safari pages. Safari states "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet."
I have also tried:
1. Go to Settings -> Wi-Fi and choose "Other."
2. Type in the SSID name and choose WPA, Type the password.
3. Hit "Join" & get the message "Could not find the network"
4. I hit Dismiss and Cancel.
5. I get the Checkmark next to the wireless network I just tried to join. If you click the blue arrow I get an IP address, but NO "Forget This Network" Option. I also have the wifi icon next to the word iPad in the upper left corner of the screen. It will also not load any Safari pages. Safari states "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet."
Please help. I have read many articles on this forum and tried everything without success.If you are getting a 169... IP, then you are not connected. That is a self-assigned IP that the iPad is giving itself because the router is not giving it one.
Is it possible that you are not selecting the correct WPA security protocol for your network? -
IPad issue when connecting to external server on 8.81 PL03
This thread is split off from "Extenally connection for the i-phone or i-pad. "
The issue is that the iPad fails to connect to an external server, while it did so successfully to a server on an ad hoc network setup.
In Integration Framework page -> Monitoring -> Authent. Monitor I only see feedback on the sap.Xcelsius scenario - again it says the info is from 8080 (while B1mobile is on port 8443, since Enforce Secure Transport = True for sap.B1Mobile?)
The attemps by the iPad to login only shows in the B1authcheck log. I have confirmed the time stamps.
I compared this unsuccessful log entry to my successful ad hoc network's log entry and it seems to break here:

DBL012 DBConn.#65 Did an explicit DB-Rollback at point java.lang.Throwable
at com.sap.b1i.dblayer.DBLayer$DBConnection.Rollback(DBLayer.java:215)..."
I have tried connecting both via 3G and with the iPad connected to local Wifi.
SAP is 8.81 PL3 with the B1iC that ships with the patch. The iPad is running the 1.1.1 app. Secure Transport is enforced (i.e. SSL is ON and port 8443 is in use)
Any insight will be appreciated!
Edited by: Maria Trinidad MARTINEZ GEA on Mar 28, 2011 2:38 PMHi Frank,
The SQL password was in the format Xxxxxx! - with '!' being the offending character.
As a consequence of changing the password, I had to reinstall B1iC (I could not figure out how to get it to use the new password otherwise). Given that I reinstalled B1iC a few times in the preceding 20 hours' process of elimination, I don't think the reinstallation itself triggered sap.B1mobile into suddenly working.
Which leaves me to conclude that it was the '!' in the SQL sa password.
I am glad to hear that it supports special characters (elsewhere) now
I'd like to suggest to anybody having problems to install it in as simple an environment as possible, and to add layers of complexity (firewalls, special characters, etc.) only after you get it working. There is little documentation for this process, which makes it challenging to troubleshoot from the top down. -

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

IPad 3 with iOS 6 fails to connect to WiFi with WPA2 and AES - any solutions available?
Hello *,
after upgrading my iPad 3 to iOS 6 it constantly fails to connect to WiFi with WPA2 and AES - hidden or broadcasted SSID - at home and at work because the device does not accept the WPA2 password. This is also the case for my iPhone 4S but both devices did work with WiFi (WPA2 / AES) perfectly with previously installed iOS 5.1.1.
I tried to downgrade to iOS 5.1.1 but it seems to be no longer possible to downgrade for both iPad 3 and iPhone 4S as the certification and signage window for iOS 5.1.1 maybe has been closed by Apple.
Does anyone know about a possible solution to connect to WiFi with WPA2 and AES with iPad 3 / iPhone 4S and iOS 6 upgrade?
Thank you very much for any help and advise.

TS1398 ipad suddenly failing to connect to a wifi network
My ipad refuses to connect to our home network, and yet it was doing so perfectly for several days. The laptop still recognizes and connects to the wifi perfectly, I've tried all the tips and suggestions provided on the apple help site, including resetting networks on the ipad, etc etc. No luck. Any usggestions out there?
Have you tried power cycling the router?
Does the iPad connect to other Wi-Fi networks?
You could also try to update the router or make sure it is setup in a way that is most compatible with the ipad. -
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:

My iPad will NOT connect to the internet.
My iPad will NOT connect to the internet..
After learning I was signed out of my iMessage AND my Facetime, I tried to sign in through settings.. After several failed attempts, I reset my network settings. When the iPad turned back on, I tried to connect to my internet and it repeatedly told me my password was wrong. After many attempts at trying the password, and making sure I typed everything correctly, it would NOT connect. I have followed at least fifty websites' directions on how to fix this problem but it will NOT work.... Help?The correct password is printed on your router's label.
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.
