TS1398 Ipad 2 wifi issues

I had my ipad 2 repaired by a 3rd party repairer and since then I can't get wifi outside of my loungeroom which is where my router is. Any suggestions? I have had it rechecked and the person could find nothing wrong with it at all

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
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.
Change the channel on your wireless router. 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.

IPad WiFi Issues are an Apple Problem

It seems clear many are having WiFi issues. While there are some suggestions involving changes to routers, these in general are at best temporary work arounds.
1. Not everyone has any ability to change things about the router they connect with.
2. The iPad is supposed to be state of the art gear. Given that, it should be able to work at least as well as a year old laptop in the same location. If it can’t, then it had a problem Apple needs to address.
3. Not every user is a techie, so the long term solution is that Apple needs to fix the iPad to work correctly out of the box. It CANNOT require users to fiddle with routers and firmware concepts.
The best thing Apple can do now is to first admit there appears an issue here and say they plan to address it ASAP.
Ed

I understand completely and sympathise with your frustration, however this is certainly atypical of Apple.
Bear in mind these forums are the equivalent of a hospital, and as such its full of sick people who come here to get well. Just because most people here are sick, doesn't mean everyone else outside is sick as well.
Yes there are problems but your solutions/suggestions which overall are correct (its Apple to solve) I think you have too simplistic an approach viz;
1. Apple cannot stick to Open Standards if routers are not kept up to date - thats not an Apple problem. the world moves on and there is no reason why the 'bleeding edge' should be held back by dead wood or out of date firmware.
2. Agree wholeheartedy, and bear in mind the hospital analogy - 300,000 units sold on the first day and NOT 30,000 or even 3,000 people here with problems. most problems are 'how do I...'
3. We will have to disagree here - sometimes users just have to accept they need to do things and learn. If they cannot understand how wireless works, its not entirely the manufacturers problem to teach them how to set one up.
I don't really disagree much with most of what you say, but speeches are not going to accomplish much, if anything . It just distracts us helpers from solving issues.
I do agree there is a wireless issue and I have my own views on what the problem is but jumping on a thread and shouting won't solve it so I keep it to myself.
Thats all.

TS1398 iPad WiFi "Unable to Connect"

I have an iPad 3 and every time I try to connect to a WiFi network the iPad says "Unable to join Network", It can find the WiFi networks in range but neverable to connect,, Last thing I tried I restored iPad software and still the same problem presists

Thanks for the reply, I tried it with home network and with some public networks and at some friends' places,, some are password protected and some are not, and it still won't connect to any of them
I guess this maybe a hardware issue,, but the thing is that nothing happened it wasn't dropped or anything like that, and my problem is that there are no service centers near and I thought I post the question maybe there is something that could help

Apple TV & iPad wifi issues

This afternoon my Apple TV lost its connection to my wifi network and I haven't been able to get it back since. I've re-entered my password dozens of times and it either tells me my password is incorrect or that there is a problem connecting to the network.
What's strange is that my computer and my iPhone are still getting great wifi coverage on the same network.
This is also a problem I've also had for the last year on my iPad. Every now and then it just drops the connection and I can't get it back, even though my iPhone and computer are getting full bars. The only thing that seems to help is to wait a day or two and then the problem seems to go away until the next time it happens.
Could there be a problem with both my iPad and Apple TV, or could it be my Airport Express, which I'm using as a base station?
To try to fix the problem today, I tried the following:
- updated my Airport Express firmware
- power cycled my Apple TV, router and Airport Express three times
- changed my Airport Express channel to 11
for a moment about an hour ago my Apple TV was able to connect to my base station, but then it lost the connection.
I should say, my Apple TV and my iPad for the matter, can always see my network, they just don't always connect when I enter in my password.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what the problem may be?

Hello Tvsteven,
Thank you for providing all the details regarding the Wi-Fi connection issue you are experiencing with your Apple TV. I found an article with some steps you can take to troubleshoot an issue like this.
I recommend reviewing the full article, but the section titled "If you can see your Wi-Fi network, but you are unable to connect to it" specifically stands out to me for the situation you described:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

IPad WIFI Issue similar to iPhone one that has gone unaddressed

Users have been heavily pushing concern over WIFI disconnecting/invisibility behavior on the iPhone and that has gone without response from Apple for months. One wonders if they are dealing with the same issue on the iPad.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1648395&tstart=0
~ M.

Note the word similar and not identical in the title folks...
iMac 24", MacBook Air, Macbook all connected to a Time Capsule and flakey WIFI happens off and on with my iPhone and my wife's iPhone. You can also see that many other users have that same experience and like the iPad it manifests itself with low bars, failed to find network, failed to connect to network, invalid password messages, etc...also consistent with what people are reporting on the iPhone.

IPad WiFi issue with T-Mobile & DeepBlueWireless

Hi,
both, the WiFi-only and the 3G model definitely have an issue with at least the above mentioned two WiFi Hotspot suppliers.
I'm currently on vacation in California and neither of the two WiFis work with the iPad. The both work fine with our iPhones and with our MacBook. But not with our iPads.
Symptom: getting the necessary IP addresses from the DHCP server works fine. After that the Hotspot web pages come in fine, too. However, clicking on the "Log In" button doesn't work anymore. Nothing happens. After a while, even the "Cancel" or back buttons don't work and the web content isn't movable with a finger. Only the iPad's Home button helps.
It's reproducable all the time.
After 1/2 hour on the phone with the DeepBlueWireless support they said I have to talk to Apple. T-Mobile answered very quickly on Twitter but they couldn't help either and said they don't support the iPad because they don't have it (AT&T has it here in the US).
Apple seems to point to the WiFi provider and their router settings. However, this fingerpointig doesn't help me, the customer.
I'm afraid, there's nothing I can do about that problem. Either Apple releases a new OS 3.2.1 with a fix for that problem or the WiFi providers like T-Mobile tweak their router settings to make them compatible with Apple's specifications. Both can last long.
Bad for the customer!
Anyone else having these problems?

Thx for the tips. However, my experience is that Apple has a huge problem here (which they already kind of admitted).
During our 3 weeks vacation I was almost NEVER able to connect to the WiFi networks the hotels provided. Be it T-Mobile or other suppliers it's always the same problem. The technical connection with the network works (the iPad gets IP addresses, those networks are open and need no WEP/WPA/WPA2 password). But when the Login page from the access point appears, after entering username & password and pressing the Login button, nothing happens anymore. Especially the indeterminate progress indicator in the status bar doesn't start whirling and the Login page becomes unresponsive. Even the Cancel button from the iPhone OS (not on the HTML Login page) doesn't work, I have to press the iPad's Home button.
None of the known workarounds worked (display brightness etc.)
Waiting for the firmware update ...

Ipad wifi issues. Someone help!!!

Hi,
The maximum download seed I get from my iPad mini retina is almost half that of my iPhone and macbook. My ISP gives me 60mbps internet, however i only get around 30-40 on my macbook air and iPhone 5c and this tends to fluctuate to lows of 10. But on my iPad I only get around 10-15 average this can go up to 40 but rarely does.
I know my wi-fi router is the bottleneck as always get 60mbps download when on ethernet. It is a stock CBN cable modem router literally in the same room as where i use my iPad, and I also live in a building with 15 other routers from the same ISP running on 2.4ghz. Could it be interference or compatibility issue with the router and the iPad?
All software has been updated.
Any help would be thoroughly appreciated

1. Some people have reported slow syncing with anything but the iPad's own USB cable (e.g. using a US cable from an iPhone/iPod). Try different cables
2. More work - disable iTunes syncing completely, then re-enable a bit at a time, e.g. one movie at a time, one playlist at a time, one photo album at a time. There are periodic reports of syncing issues caused by a bit of media that's been corrupted, and this (tedious) approach allows you to identify where the problem might be.
3. If that fails, do a clean restore back to factory settings, then progressively re-enable syncing as above.
Hope this helps

IPad Wifi issue

Hi everybody,
Never tried this Forum and thought to give it a go...because,
I still have a problem to connect to the internet with my iPad after the update to 4.2.1 (had the same issues with the previous system)
I am working in Ethiopia and use a USB-Dongle to establish the internet connection with my MacBook Pro and share the connection (System Preferences/Sharing/Internet Sharing) and it works perfectly well with my iPhone4 and colleagues computers and iPhones.
My iPad however finds the network and has a good signal but as soon as I try to open the internet I have a window opening telling me I don't have internet access. Anybody has the same or a similar problem?
Have tried to reset the network settings on the iPad, restarted it, created various networks with and without password restriction, removed and reinstalled the USB-Dongel but nothing worked.
Anybody any ideas or advice?

I have just received an IPAD. I must confess that it is the most frustrating piece of equipment I have ever interfaced with. After reading all the people comments and tricks and tried probably most of them I am now tired of reseting the equipment. Is there no way we can have the product specialists involved to deal with the wireless issue. Or id it a bug. I have a billion router and have loaded the new operating system and hoped that it would deal with the wireless issue. But this was just wishfull thinking. It sees and connect to the wireless network but I am unable to access the internet!!!! I am very frustrated. If someone can provide me with a logical approach I would appreciate it. Most of the time it seems to be trial and error (WHen I downloaded the manual only to find that its broken!!!!

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)

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

TS1398 Ipad won't accept WIFI signal all of a sudden - worked fine till tonight

My ipad has worked for over a year on my home wifi network and tonight it will not connect no matter what I do. Wifi is working as my computers are all working fine and the modem is working but for some reason my ipad has decided it won't accept the signal. I have tried all of the troubleshooting suggestions; ie, forget network, shut off and restart, etc. Still just circles and circles trying to connect.The IP address and subnet mask numbers show up but nothing else. And when I try to go online it says Network Required. Please help! This is driving me crazy!

Some things to try first:

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.

The Apple policy is explicit, if the price is changed within 14 days of your puchase you can ask for a refund of the difference in what you paid and the new price. You are well outside the 14 days of the policy.
Pricing and Price Reductions/Corrections
With regards to pricing, Apple reserves the right to change prices for products displayed at/on the Apple Store at any time, and to correct pricing errors that may inadvertently occur. Additional information about pricing and sales tax is available on the Payment & Pricing page.
Should Apple reduce its price on any Apple-branded product within 14 calendar days from the date you receive your product, feel free to visit an Apple Retail Store or contact the Apple Contact Center at 1-800-676-2775 to request a refund or credit of the difference between the price you were charged and the current selling price. To receive the refund or credit you must contact Apple within 14 calendar days of the price change. Please note that this excludes limited-time price reductions, such as those that occur during special sales events (such as Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Thrifty Thursday . . . okay, we made that last one up).

WiFi issue after 6.1.2 upgrade

I upgraded my OS to 6.1.2 and now I'm having troubles connecting to the internet at work. I did reset my network settings and inputted the appropriate password and still having issues. It identifies the network but when open safari or an app requiring internet connection it goes nowhere. Is anyone else having this issue. Does anyone know how to fix this problem. Keep in mind my connection works fine at home.
