My iPad's WiFi issue

Hello all,
I purchased a 16GB iPad this last sunday, and I love it. There's only one problem, and I don't believe it's the same as the other iPad WiFi issues.
My iPad will randomly disconnect from wireless networks, but when randomly disconnecting, it causes the router it's connected to to drop all wireless connections. At my girlfriend's house, it'll knock her PC and my MacBook Pro off the wireless network if my iPad loses the connection. Which is troublesome.
It does the same exact thing at my house. It'll drop all the wireless connections at my house if my iPad suddenly disconnects.
Anyone know what's causing this? I've tried this with a WPA network and an unsecured network, with the same results.
Thanks in advance.

Brand New iPad Mini WiFi ISSUES

So I bought my iPad Mini 32gb a week ago and I've been using it eversince with my house's wifi. I recently updated it to iOS 6.1.3 and a couple of days after I started having WiFi issues. So I connect to my wifi and use it as usual, but after 5 minutes of using it the internet stops working eventhough it still shows the 3 bars of internet on the top left corner next to iPad. To fix this I have to turn off my iPad every time. I am trying to see if there is a solution or if I will have to send it to the apple repair center or change it for a new one for 40 bucks. I really need internet on it so please help. ( IT IS URGENT.)

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

IPad 2 WiFi Issue Answered (possibly)

Hi All,
It turns out that there may be an issue with all the ipad 2's. I have even been to an apple store and demonstrated to the manager this issue. It appears whenever your hand holds the ipad near the speaker (landscape mode most commonly) the wifi strength is significantly reduced and once 5-10m away from a modem/router it actually drops out. I have tried this with 4 different modems/routers with the same result. I have also demonstrated this to the manager at JB HiFi where i just returned my 64gb 3G black ipad 2. I don't know how this issue has not been formally verbalised as yet. After seeing the genius bar at the apple store I asked for the manager and told her about the problem which she ended up telling me if you don't think you can deal with it return it. I tried to deal with it but in the end it got to me. I am disappointed at firstly I could not just get a replacement because they all do it and secondly that apple would release a product with such a fundamental flaw. I can not believe that this was not picked up in testing of the unit before release or were apple rushing this product out before they were ready. The shortage may be an indication. I did love my ipad 2 although the wifi issue ruined it. I hope this sheds some light on some of the wifi issues for some users. Let me know if this helps.
Matt,

I am disappointed at firstly [SIC] I could not just get a replacement because
they all do it and secondly that apple would release a product with such
a fundamental flaw.
How is this a fundamental flaw? This is a device with a radio transmitter/receiver in it. It has to go somewhere or it would not have wireless capabilities. It is a handheld device, no matter where Apple puts it, someone will want to cover that spot, whether with their hand or by placing it in their lap. If you have seen a teardown of the iPad 2, most of the inside is taken up by the batteries and the electronics are placed around the edges. I would imagine that wi-fi was placed near the speakers because folks are least likely to cover the speakers if they are listening to something.
Next you will be telling us that the camera is a fundamental flaw as well because some fool somewhere will just have to hold the iPad 2 where the camera is located and so they cannot enjoy making FaceTime calls!
This is good to know, but in the larger scheme of the iPad 2, it is a giant non-issue.

Ipad 2 wifi issues

Hi
I'm having problems with the wifi on my ipad 2, for the ipad to connect to the router i have to place it directly next to my router and it will connect with no problems but trying to connect to the router more then 1 metre away from the router the ipad doesn't find the router at all. This being my first ipad I just thought it was the way they are only for my brother to bring his ipad 1 to my house his ipad not only connects instantly to my router from anywhere in the house but also finds another 5 wifi connections. If I was to use my ipad upstairs in the room directly above the router it will stay connected for about 5 minutes and loses connection and I have to go down stairs and place the ipad2 next to the router for it to connect again where as my brother slept in the bedroom furthest away from the router and found the router and connected straight away and stays connected!
Is there something different in the way the ipad2 has been built or do you think I have a problem with my ipad?
I would appreciate your thoughts and comments.
Thanks
Gary

Possible solution to ipad 3 wifi issue

This has worked for me, so hopefully it will help some of the other ipad 3 users who are experiencing wifi issues.
I have an Ipad 3 32G wifi only model. It was shipped to me on 3/16. I had wifi problems similar to many posters here. Namely, the wifi disconnects and reconnects once every few minutes. It is independent of the range between my ipad and my router (i.e. it happens when the ipad is within 1 foot of the router or 100 feet).
I tried the whole reset wireless network process and that did not work...
What did work was an update to my router's firmware. I have a netgear n600 rounter and updating the firmware immediately solved the disconnect problem. I also borrowed my dad's ipad 2 and tested the wifi signal strength between his ipad 2 and my ipad 3 as a function of distance. The two devices signals were comparable at various distances from the router.
of course, in places with public wireless, it is doubtful that these routers' firmware are diligently updated, so wifi problems will likely persist in public areas. But at least you can solve the problem in your home where you have control over your router :-)
hope this help.

IPad 2 wifi issues with iMac internet sharing

I have the iPad 2 [ (Wifi + 3G) ( iOS 5.1.1 (9B206) ] which connected to my 21" iMac [Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)] through Internet sharing seemlessly some time back.
However of late, with latest software updates on the iMac & iPad, the connection seems to work only intermittently.
The connection breaks every half or one hour, despite both the devices being in the same room.
I have tried almost all suggestions on forums like resetting your network settings on iPad, changing channels on the iMac for Internet sharing, with or without password security, resetting the firewalls on & off on the iMac, but nothing seems to work & the only way is to reset all your settings all over again.

I used Internet Sharing like this couple of times!
The situation happens is that when you share your internet over Wifi, and you password protect it, when you connect the iPad or any iDevice to that new hotspot, it happens that after selecting that hotspot, we need to turn on "Auto Join". So when the iPad gets disconnected, it gets disconnected completely and you need to connect back once again. So when you turn on "Auto Join" it will get connected automatically once again it gets disconnected maybe due to power saving or suddenly it leaves the hotspot.

IPad mini wifi issues

hey guys.
hopefully someone can help me out here. I have an iPad mini that I've had for a year now. Up until about 3 months ago everything was working fine, now for some reason my iPad intermittently disconnects from wifi while streaming.
a little about my situation. My only source of internet is via my cell phones mobile hotspot. (Droid bionic) The only time I have issues with the wifi connection is when I'm trying to steam video Via netflix, html5, dolphin browser etc. only video stream that doesn't seem affected is youtube.
now I've been searching online since this started happening and have come under the impression that this is a common issue hat no one seems to know how to fix. Is that true? I've done all the quick fixes ie: turn off wifi, turn off Bluetooth, reset hotspot settings etc. etc.
the only way I can get wifi to reconnect is if I manually go into settings turn off wifi and turn it back on. (On ipad)
ive ive gone as far as doing a hard reset on my phone thinking that was the problem. All to no avail. I also operTe my lapto off my phone so I know the connection there works just fine.
Does anyone know of a fix for this? It's kind of a pain but recently it has been happening more and more frequently and is starting to get rather obnoxious.
please let me know if you know how to take care of this. Thanks!

This is a widespread problem with the Mini but don't get misdirected into thinking that it's a router issue.
it isn't.
Apple don't appear to be taking ownership of this issue as it would open the floodgates and impact on:
1. The brand
2. The bottom line
so we are stuck looking at some spurious solutions, many of which are red herrings.
if Apple could supply a patch to fix this problem that would make sense but this is above my pay grade.
II'm sure you have, but google this again and you'll see the scale of user disenfranchisement over this problem!

IPad 2 and iPad 3 WiFi issues with IOS6

I have both and iPad2 and iPad3 and since upgrading to IOS6 the WiFi connection does not work. Other devices work fine connecting to the same WiFi router. What I have found for the iPads is that name resolution is broken. My iPads get and IP address and DNS address from the router however you cannot connect to anything. Using Safari, if I browse directly to the IP address of a site it works fine.
When connecting with the internal 3G modems it works fine.
Anyone else having similar issues - very frustrating.

For those interested, I stumbled across a solution here. I changed my WiFi ciphers from tkip to aes and it's working. Strange but true.

IOS 5.1 iPad 2 Wifi Issues

Ever since updating to iOS5.1 on my iPad 2 I've been having issues with connecting to my wifi.
I have a Cisco E4200V2 that I bought about 3 weeks ago. On iOS5.0.1 I had no issues at all, but since iOS5.1, my iPad 2 is stuck in a loop trying to connect. And I've tried it a 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz on different channels and different security (even with no security) and it's stuck.
I've gone over to a friends house and it connects to his wifi so I'm ruling out a possible software glitch.
So why isn't my iPad2 not working on a cisco router? It was working just fine.
And I have my iPhone 4 which is now running iOS5.1 and it can connect to my wifi.

Ipad 2 Wifi issues after upgrading to ios 7

I live in a small house, 750 sq ft area (30 x 22). Ipad wifi was working fine in all the rooms before upgrading its iOS to 7. After ipad2 iOS was upgraded to iOS 7, wifi now works in the room where the Wifi router is located. But does not receive Wifi signal in any other room. I tired everything that has been suggested in the forum - like changing the router settings (channel, security etc),playing with ipad2's wifi, etc. etc. But to no avail!
Clearly the bug in iOS 7 has caused this issue! How does one log this issue with Apple tech support team so they can rectify this issue in iOS 7 patch? Also, please let me know if I should be trying anything else. Thanks!

I have exactlythe same issue. Have had ever since the upgrade to iOS 7. It's nothing to do with the router. It has to be a bug in iOS 7. Question is, would upgrading to iOS 8 help at all??? Anyone done this.?? I used to love my iPad and it was never out of my hand. Now I just hate it and use my Kindle Fire all the time instead. I used to pick up wiif signals across the street. Now I have to be sitting on a router to connect.

Ipad air wifi issues

Hi,
i have ipad air. i cannot connect to internet. i took it back to apple store and they replaced it twice. the same problems. at this point i just want my money back. they donot want to give my money back. any advice about how i can get my money back? i will never buy another apple product again.

If you have had three iPads which could not connect to your WiFi network then there is something wrong with your network.
Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

IPad 2 wifi issue with Apple Time Capsule + Screen bleed.

I have an iPad 1, iMac, Macbook Pro and two iPhone 4s all successfully working on wifi with my Time Capsule.
I have two networks set up on the time capsule both 5GHz and regular N.
My new iPad 2 can see both networks and acepts the passphrase to connect to them but I can't get to the internet via Safari.
I can use the internet when connected on 3G but neither of the wifi networks work!
I've tried rebooting, forgetting and reconnecting the network etc to no avail.
It's currently on 4.3.1 and I'm just downloading 4.3.2 to see if that helps.
Either way I think I'm going to have to take this one back as it has TERRIBLE screen bleed too!
Has anyone else seen similar wifi problems?
Thanks

Try updating the firmware on your router. The latest firmware is available here:

You should also move to WPA2 security.

Ipad 2 wifi issues since updating to ios version 4.3.3..

I have tried everything to remedy this on my own but to no avail. I am picking up a great signal strength from my wifi on my ipad 2, but I just don't seem to get enough 'juice' to load a webpage. I seem to be able to check email every now and then....this is incredibly frustrating. This is my first Apple product that has wifi (have had ipods for a while) and I am not liking this at all. I use my ipad 2 for everything now, I need help!

Glad/sad to see it's not just me. Hopefull they will publish a fix for the last fixsoon. I've tried all the remedies on CultoOfMac, to no avail either.
iPad1 and iPhone4 both TKO'ed at this point. Very sad to see it happen in the middle of a session or appstore download!!!
