My iPad suddenly doesn't want to connect to my internet!

I have to literally stand in front of my router. It's weird because if I take a few steps away all the bars will go away. I looked it up and it's the same tips over and over again. "Forget the network and reconnect" "turn the router off and back on" "restart your iPad" " your IP address" NOTHING IS WORKING!!

Have you tried connecting to another router/network?
If it doesn't connect to other routers, you may have some hardware problem on iPad.

  • How come my Ipad suddenly doesn't want to connect to the wi-fi anymore?  The server stopped for a few minutes and when it came back on, my ipad lists it as available, but says it's impossible to join.

    the connexion wi-fi was working fine.  Suddenty, the server stopped for a few minutes and when it came back on, I had no trouble using the internet on my laptop, but myIpad won't connect.  The wi-fi is listed, but it says impossible to connect.  I tried turning off the ipad, but the problem is still there.

    Go through some basic troubleshooting steps.
    Settings>WiFi>Off, restart the iPad and turn WiFi on again.
    Settings>WiFi>Tap the blue arrow next to your home network name>Forget this Network, Restart the iPad and then try to join your network again.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. Restart the iPad and try to join your network again.
    Finally, you can try rebooting the router. Unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

    Have you tried to reboot your router? Unplug it, count to 30, plug it back in and let it reboot. Also you may want to go into your settings on your iPad and 'reset network settings'.
    In case the update messed something up, letting the devices reboot sometimes helps.

  • I plug in my iPad and make sure it is connected to the internet and locked.  I still get "This iPad hasn't been backed up in (N) Days"  What am I doing wrong?

    I plug in my iPad and make sure it is connected to the internet and locked.  I still get "This iPad hasn't been backed up in (N) Days"  What am I doing wrong?

    Is the iPad plugged in to the mains ? You can force a backup via Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Back Up Now
    If the 'hasn't been backed up' message is stuck on the screen and you can't clear it then try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. You can then force a backup as above.

  • I cannot get my IPad air to connect to wireless in home. Two other iPad 2's connect as well as laptops. I have already exchanged one iPad air and none want to connect. Husband has taken iPad air to the apple store, connects here but not here. Who can help

    Can someone please help???  I received am IPad air in November for my birthday and have not been able to use yet,  I could not get it to connect so I returned it for another iPad air. And cannot get it to connect to wireless either. I have three other iPad 2's and laptops in home and everything connects with no problem. What is the deal with these iPad airs? My husband took the iPad to Apple store, it works there but didn't change anything so it won't work at home. Do I need to step down to old IPad since that's all that will connect in home.  This is crazy,!!! How can I get my IPad air working in my home.???

    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.

  • G580(2189) Wi-Fi doesn't want to connect to a network after sleep.

    Hi.
    My G580(2189) don't want to connect to a Wi-Fi network after sleep. It's not just my network at home, but at work and other points of interest as well. It usually after a reboot it works again. And sometimes, al tho rarely after just going back to sleep and waking it up again.
    I've tried updating drivers, but always been confused to what hardware is being used in this laptop since it just says "broadcom" or something.
    I did update my device to Win 8.1. But I'm pretty sure I had this problem before that tho.
    And I tried to contact Lenovo support, since I'm not really a forum-kind-of-guy. But their support site it so confusing for simple person to person contact.
    Tanks in advance for any advice.

    hi Paverx,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    Can you try enabling Hybrid Sleep and see if that works,
    Let me know your findings.

  • My facetime suddenly doesn't want to work... :(

    Hi, I've been using facetime for how many times already but when i wished to use it again, it doesn't want to activate. what could possibly the reason? should i contact my network?

    I was able to use FaceTime before, and some "glitch" happened and I was unable to so I did do the restore. I even went to the Apple Store to figure it out and that's all the guy told me to do was to restore it. Actually he did it for me, but I believe a restore will help. 
    You can always download your apps again for free.  But make sure you get off playlists/video/photos, use iCloud if you have the room for other stuff too.
