Why is my iPad's Wi-Fi speed turning into a snail after updating to iOS 6?!

Before updating my 3rd gen. iPad to iOS 6, my iPad's Wi-Fi speed was snappy. After updating to iOS 6, it became a snail.
To prove it, I loaded a web page on my iPad running iOS 6. At the same time, I loaded the same web page on my iPhone 4S running iOS 5.1.1. The iPhone loaded the page first and was able to load a second one until the iPad finished loading. Both devices were on the same Wi-Fi network.
I tested both devices again using the Speedtest.net app. The iPhone, again, came out on top with lower ping and faster data speeds. In contrast, the iPad suddenly stopped testing while the app was testing it's ping.
Apple, if you're reading this, please fix this in iOS 6.0.1!!

Go back to the PC.

  • Why do I keep getting the "accessory may not be supported" error after updating to ios 7?

    Ever since updating to the new ios, my iphone 4 is rejecting every single charger I try to use.  All of these chargers are first party apple chargers, and they are all in good shape.  Withing seconds of plugging my phone in I get the "this accessory may not be supported" error.  Has anyone else had this problem or know how I can fix this?  Thank you.

    I get the same problem, but my phone still charges, is yours charging after you notice this message?

    iPhone 4S: I have the same problem. After updating to iOS 7, wifi worked for some time, and then it stopped working. I can't even enable wifi. I just updated to iOS 7.0.2 and it didn't help at all.

  • First off, i think it's sad that i have to use my non apple device to post this question... Why has my iPad become absolutely useless after updating to iOS 8.1? I am unable to use my mini because it crashes, slow performance, major battery drain.

    Restore iPad to Factory Default; do not restore from backup. It may be the cause of the problem.

  • Why does my iPad show no sim when turning on cellular data?

    Why does my iPad show no sim when turning on cellular data?

    Check the right and left sides of your iPad for a small hole the size of a paper clip (remove your smart cover if you have one).  If you see this, then you have the wifi + cellular model.  If you do, use a paper clip to remove the sim tray (or the sim removal tool that came with your iPad if you have it) as shown in the image below. 
    If the tray has a sim card in it, push the sim tray back in to re-seat it in the side of the iPad, then turn it on to see if the error message re-appears.  If it re-appears, take it to a Verizon store and have them give you a new sim card.
    If you have a sim tray but it is empty, you'll need to go to a Verizon store to get a sim card for it.

  • Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5?

    Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5? What can I do to make it work again?

    It should. It will only respond if there's something on the card for it to respond to, so do you have pics on the card?
    And if it's messing up; try giving the iPad a restart. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see hte red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. That can clear up any glitches on the device itself.

  • Why has my iPad downloaded over 7000 spam messages into a folder called gmail/all mail?  I have not set up a gmail account on my iPad

    Why has my iPad downloaded over 7000 spam messages into a folder called gmail/all mail?  I have not set up a gmail account on my iPad

    No you will not have to set up the iPad all over again. Resetting the iPad is like rebooting your computer. You will lose no apps, data, settings .... Nothing at all. I like to use the expression that it's like "clearing out the cobwebs" on the iPad's memory.
    The reason I am suggesting this is that there are some other sort of bizarre issues that occur in the mail app and the reset seems to clear up those issues. So I think it is worth a try.
    On the other hand, if you have restored the iPad to factory settings, I don't know that it will help. If nothing else works, try going to your web mail using a browser and see if you can't deal with this in there.

    Thank you for the advice Randy. Very helpful of you to jump in with a post that adds so much value for the OP.
    A bit of advice for you as a new user. Please refrain from making assumptions and using hyperbole. Both get in the way of providing useful support. Not "everyone" has tried the basics, let alone know what they are. That's why they're here. These first steps in troubleshooting often fix the issue being asked. If this thread doesn't answer your question, move on and find one that does. Feel free to skip the thousands that advise a reset.

  • Why is my ipad2 really slow after updating to IOS 6.1.2

    Why is my ipad2 really slow after updating to IOS 6.1.2

    Try this.
    Quit all apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Why can't I access my music after updating to iOS 5?

    why can't I access my music after updating to iOS 5?

    Same problem here. After installing iOS 5, restoring, and syncing... when I clicked on the music icon on my iPad, none of my songs were there. All I saw was "download music from iTunes store." But, on iTunes, when I clicked on my iPad icon (then Music), it showed that all of my songs were synced!
    So, this is what worked for me, I rebooted my iPad.
    I turned off my iPad by holding down the sleep button for about 5 seconds, then the "Slide to power off" came up, and I powered off my iPad.
    Then, I started it up again, and clicked on the music icon on my iPad, and now all of my synced music showed up.
    I hope this helps some of you guys out there.

  • Any ideas? In the history may iPad never crashed but after updating to iOS 5 it crashed every 30 minutes, and browsing is very slow

    Any ideas? In the history may iPad never crashed but after updating to iOS 5 it crashed every 30 minutes, and browsing is very slowAny ideas? In the history may iPad never crashed but after updating to iOS 5 it crashed every 30 minutes, and browsing is very slow

    I found the reason why our iPads are slow after iOS 5!!!!!!!
    What you need to do is this:
    1) launch settings, go to mail contacts and calendars, go to fetch new data, advanced, and set iCloud to fetch.
    2) go back and set an interval of when to fetch. Mine is set for thirty minutes. 
    3) make sure on top push is still on, that means that all your emails will still be pushed, but all the iCloud sync (contacts, calendars, reminders, bookmarks) will happen at the interval you choose.
    Restart the device. Your performance should be 10x faster! No more keyboard lag, nothing! Doing this puts less stress on the A4 chip, which we know we need every bit we can get with it now!!!
    Optional:
    1) in the settings, go to safari.
    2) clear all history and cookies/data
    3) enable private browsing. One of the biggest reasons why devices are slow is because it keeps all the history and cookies in the RAM. You need more RAM to make things faster. By turning on private browsing, it never records it!
