My iPad 2 won't connect to wifi after new update

Hello everyone!
I am a new ipad and mac user and I am on vacation. During my vacation I remotely updated my iPad and ever since I can not connect to the hotels wifi. It is one of those that you have to sign in before being able to do anything on the internet. When you go into settings and select a network it will show a check that it is connected but when you go to safari it will not open the login page. This means I can not check my email or do anything that is essential when I am away from my home town. If anyone can help it would be much appriciated!!!!

Additional things to try.
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. (In a hotel, you can't do this.)
On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.

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:

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?
Thanks in advance, greetings from Stuttgart (Germany),

IPad won't connect to WiFi network, but macbook pro & iphones will.

Both of my iPhones and my Macbook Pro easily connect to the wi-fi network. I feel like I've tried everything to get my iPad to connect. It used to connect perfectly fine and I'd watch Netflix, but then it started crashing. I work for a non-profit so it's a company network, not my personal one, but it's the only network I have considering I live here! Such a pain!
I've reset my network settings.
I've click "Forget Network"
I've done a hard reset of the iPad multiple times.
NOTHING WORKS.
Can some super tech savvy person help a girl out?! I would greatly appreciate it.

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

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

My Ipad won't connect to wifi.

My Ipad (1st generation, iOS 7.1.2) won't connect to wifi. I've had the Ipad for two days, the first two days it worked perfectly fine with my wifi, but today it wouldn't connect. I tried getting back on to my wifi but it told me the password was incorrect. I have tried to enter the password multiple times, but every time it tells me its incorrect. It is the correct password and I have made sure I have been typing it in correctly, which I have. I'm not sure what the problem is, and I don't know how to fix it. Please help!

"My Ipad (1st generation, iOS 7.1.2) won't connect to wifi. I've had the Ipad for two days"
A first gen iPad can only be upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 so it may not be a first generation.
Tap Settings > General > About
Which version do you see ??
For iOS Wi-Fi issues ..
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
No data is lost due to a reset.
If nothing above has helped, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

I cannot connect to iTunes after new update on iPad air

I Cannot connect to iTunes or App Store after new update and I have tried all the trouble shooting stuff....no good. When I close the app the contents are there but when I tap on them the error message comes up and the app contents goes blank....Help. I need them for my business.
thanks

Hello Deryn340,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you're currently unable to connect to either the iTunes Store or the App Store on your iPad, then I'd like you to please follow the troubleshooting steps outlined below.
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update(iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
If the steps above didn't resolve your issue, be sure that your specific alert isn't listed as a possible iTunes Store error. Then, if your issue is still unresolved, follow these steps.
Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
Cheers,
Alex H.

Won't connect to wifi after updating to ios 6.1.2

Updated my Ipad mini to ios 6.1.2 and now it won't connect to my wifi network. All other devices connect. Tried resetting network settings. Tried hold the home and power button until reset. Tried restoring.
Thoughts???????

It sees the network. As far as the router goes, I'm staying at a hotel right now not sure if they will reboot just for me. Everything worked fine yesterday after the update but this morning no luck.

IPad won't connect to wifi

Help! I have had my iPad for some time now and Never had a problem connecting it to my home wifi. In the last three days it has either not connected, connected but no wifi symbol appears in top left, connected with wifi symbol lit but won't open web pages, or continually asked for the password and said 'cannot access network'. I am at a complete loss to know what to do. Why has this suddenly happened? I have contacted my broadband provider, all ok their end. My laptop has no problem finding the wifi and using it so I can't see it being the router. Even so I have re-set my router and re-set the security on it, still no joy. In fact my iPad couldn't understand how to use the re-set network before it was secured! The frustrating thing is my iPad can use other open networks so why can it not use my home one? because I know modem, router, iPad, laptop are all working,(laptop can use home wifi, iPad can use other open networks) this feels as though I am either totally bonkers or it must be something small that I am missing. I have hard reset the iPad, holding home and power buttons, and reset networks from the general settings. I have tried numerous tips on the router settings, channel 11, putting it onto WEP, adding mac address etc etc etc.
If anyone can help at all it will be hugely appreciated. I am a disabled person so my iPad is used more at home on wifi than anywhere else. I can use another open network or safari, games, updating aps etc but am worried that this is insecure and concerned that other people can pick up card details passwords etc.
I am seriously considering throwing the iPad away as it is not doing what I need it to do and getting myself an android tablet. This would be a shame as in all other ways I'm fond of it but it seems to be acting like it's having a tantrum, maybe it's going through the terrible twos! I just resent that I am paying for broadband my iPad refuses to use!
Has anybody else had these issues? Is my iPad coming to he end of it's shelf life? Has anyone had this issue and managed to resolve it? If so ANY tips would help, even those I've tried before as I may not have done things correctly.

Argh!! Sorry but I'm still no nearer to solving this issue. I tried EVERYTHING suggested and NONE of it has worked :(
Has been suggested that I get a new router BUT..... It is ONLY the iPad that won't connect to this router. My laptop (xp), youngest sons laptop (vista) and my eldest sons (who got the train home just to help try to fix this problem) Archos 101 Internet tablet ALL have no problem connecting to the wifi.
I am so wiped out now from trying everything I could find on apple support, forums, google searches that I'm ready to turn this blooming iPad into a wedge to put under the wobbly table leg. I'm not even close to joking. What is the problem?
I have even gone to the time consuming, teeth grinding process of updating iPad to ios5. And.... NO! Still no cigar :(
I now know that I am not alone. People EVERYWHERE are having the same problem. Different settings on the router work for different people but as yet none have worked for me.
I can't believe that apple do not know about this, so why can't someone in the know read this question and tell me what the issue is and how to fix it? This iPad is my first apple product and until recently I was considering both an iPhone and a mac book, NOT NOW. Unless and until this problem is resolved apple is a dirty word in my house and I will not recommend them to anyone. It's just not worth the agg.
As for it being obstructed by metal containing iron, What? Can't see a situation where that would happen! Sorry to be rude but I'm going round the twist now with this.

Won't connect to WIFI after updating to ISO 07?

I just updated my software on my iphone 4 to ISO 0.7(whatever the new one is) and it won't connect to my wifi. It just keeps trying to connect but never does. When I connected it to my computer it asks if i "trust this computer" yes or no. I say yes and still doesn't connect. This is making me so mad and eating away at my data because I need to use my internet on my phone. Please help someone.

If the problem is only your home WiFi do the following:
Reboot your router by removing all power from it for about 30 seconds
If that doesn't fix it on the phone go to settings/general/reset - Reset network settings

Mac won't connect to wifi after sleep?

Hello,
I'm a student, and currently on an Enterprise network, and whenever I've used this wifi I always have troubles with connection! The first time I connect at the start of the school year, everything works just fine. However, 90% of the time, after closing the laptop and opening it again, I lose my connection to the wifi - even if I haven't moved.
When I open the laptop it tries to connect to the wifi, and fails. Sometimes it says I have an ip but wont be able to connect, or flat out it cannot connect. Typically I go into my wifi settings and delete the network from the list, then delete the network certificate from my keychain. After turning the wifi off then on, then re-entering my cridentials it will sometimes recconect just fine. Otherwise I have to sit there and connect/dissconecct/wifi on/wifi off till it can connect again. All said and done, getting it to connect again takes me a good 5 mins or so. Not ideal for a college student.
I do NOT have this problem on my home network or any other wifi for that matter, just the schools Enterprise network. I was using Lion up untill today when I upgraded to Mountain Lion, but both OS's have this problem.
Most of my PC peers or Snow Leopard peers have to configure 802.1x settings, however, lion and up does not allow for adding an 802.1x profile. Could this be the source of my problem?
Thanks for any help.

Is anyone else having this issue?

IPad2 won't connect to wifi after I installed Lion on my laptop.

My son complained that he could no longer connect to our home wifi from either his laptop or from his XBox. After doing an inventory, my laptop connects, my wife's laptop connects, my iPhone connects, but my iPad2, my son's MacBook and his XBox cannot connect to our home wifi.
To my knowledge, I haven't changed anything. The only thing I can think of is that somehow this is a Lion problem. Is it possible that Lion has changed some kind of Airport setting to make some things connect and some things not?
I'm pretty much out of my depth here. Any ideas? What can I try?

Not related. Installing Lion doesn't make any changes to a wireless router and/or wireless network the computer is connected to that Lion is installed on.
Try resetting the router. Disconnect all computers and devices connected to your wireless network. Unplug the wireless router from its power source to turn it off. Do the same with the modem the wireless router is connected to. Wait a few minutes followed by plugging your modem back in and allow the modem to completely reset before plugging your wireless router back in to power it back on allowing it to completely reset with a new connection with the modem. Follow this by reconnecting every computer and device to your wireless network.

IPhone 5s won't connect to wifi after 7.0.3 update

I updated my iOS last night to 7.0.3, today i can't connect to wifi. All my other devices and laptop are connected to this same network but i can't join on my phone.

Heya risch, what follows are two experiences both I my brother had with this problem. It seems this issue is so widespread that two people can have bought thier iphone from different sources and have the exact same issue, with varying outcomes.
Worst case first, my brothers iphone. He updated to 7.0.2 and found he just couldnt connect his wi-fi. He was terrified of losing all his (over 1000) contacts so he decided to take his phone in to the local Telstra (Australia) outlet. The guys there tried all sorts of things and finally conceeded and sent the phone back to Apple. Apple to their credit did not question or quibble, they sent out a likley refurb'd or new iphone 4s to my brother then next day.
My issue (now solved) was about the same, though I had just updated to 7.0.3, I just could not get wifi to connect. Finally I decided to delete our homes wifi connection from my iphone ie: "Forget Network", then with the details taken off my computer and ipad I rejoined our home network and simply punched in our network password and bang!. It worked.

Won't connect to wifi after update

I updated my Iphone 5 four days ago and now I cannot connect to WiFi at home. My wife has the same phone, we bought them the same day 9 months ago. She has not updated her phone and she gets great WiFi at our house. What did the update do to my phone?? How do I get back on my WiFi?? I'm not updating my wife's phone until this is all fixed.

Hi, bsixK.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Sometimes a simple power cycle of the router can correct the issue that you are experiencing. However, the issue could be a little more complex. Wi-Fi routers need adjustments to settings periodically for optimized performance with the constant progression of wireless device technology. As the issue has been isolated to your home and school network, I have included two articles. The first article will cover basic Wi-Fi troubleshooting regarding iOS device connection. The second article cover the recommended settings for current Wi-Fi access points.
