Have iPad 2 and also iPad. Why does old iPad get stronger wifi signal?

Why does my new iPad 2 have a low wifi signal, while sitting next to first iPad that has strong wifi signals? All settings are the same.

I don't think its any stronger or weeker I jus think the iPad 2's WiFi meter seems to be more accurate.
That's unlikely since the iOS and hardware in this area should be identical.
If you are having reception problems take your iPad2 to an Apple store for some testing.

Why does my ipad keep dropping wifi connection?

Bought several ipad2's a month ago, they all worked fine and then a week ago they all devolped a very annoying fault that they disconnect from the wifi connection for no reason.
To be honest I'm being to think these machines are crap. Look good but don't do the basics.
Please help!!!

hi Paulcb,
Thanks for your answer. You were right. I rang Apple support (who were lovely btw) they talked me through resetting the ipad - which looked like it had worked as I didn't drop out for hours - and then I did :-( again and again and again.
So then I rang my internet provider and they talked me through changing the "channel selection" on my router (means nothing to me, but it does look as though it has worked).

Why does my ipad keep losing connection and kicking me out of apps?

Why does my ipad keep dropping apps while I am using them like facebook and facetime. It just disconnects and goes to the home screen. Very frustrating!

I have a MacBookPro...my wife has iPad2...and I do nothing with her iPad...
let me ask a dumb question reading here. She plays a lot of Scrabble or word games...goes on Facebook, and has been complaining to me about the games crashing, bringing her sometimes back to the home page.
We followed one piece of advice given here...to hold the start and home buttons simultaneously and reboot. This may work...we'll see.
But...on the advice concerning the apps. When she holds down an App...they vibrate or shake, which I guess is a way to move an app about...drag it. Saw no minus sign. I guess we assumed the app was "closed" sitting dormant on the home screen...and so I know or understand (she not so computer literate), an app sitting on the homescreen is not necessarily closed? Hitting home and bringing the desktop back up, is not necessarily closing out of the app?
thanks...

It might be because the billing address you provided doesn't exactly match your bank records. It has to match your statement exactly. See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646.
