Wi-Fi Freezes on iPad - Any Solutions ???

Can anyone please help?
I have had an iPad Version 1 for about 9 months with no problems.
A couple of weeks ago I installed the new iOS5 operating system.
My wi-fi has worked fine for a couple of weeks, but since yesterday it has completely 'frozen'.
It works for a few seconds after switching on the iPad, but then completely freezes, and wont work. The Wi-Fi symbol is present on the iPad to show it is connected, but the circular symbal rotates at the side of it as if it is trying to connect. I occasionally get the message 'No Internet Connection'.
I have tested my wi-fi with my mobile phone and the connection is absolutely fine.
I have tried 'sync'ing my iPad several times and even done a complete 'reset' several time and it says that it has been reinstalled correctly.
However, when i turn on the iPad, the wi-fi works for a few seconds and then freezes again. If you reboot it it again works for a few seconds and then freezes.
Am now tearing my head out over this. Has anyone got any solutions or suggestions, or would this appear to be a 'hardware' fault and in need of return to authorised repairer??
Any help would be gratefully accepted.
Thanks
Kevin

Hi Jim,
Thank you so much for your response and advice.
I have rebooted my wireless router as you instructed and my iPad now seems to be working ok with the wireless connection.
I know it would have seemed an obvious thing to try, but I did test the wireless router with both my wife and my mobile phones, and they both worked perfectly and uninterrupted connection, so I assumed that it must be the iPad at fault.
I guess the configuration of the iPad wi-fi must be completely different to that of our HTC phones, and hence threw the glitch.
Anyway all is fine now, for the time being.
Thank you so much for your help. I only wish I had posted my request for help yesterday, and saved hours of messing around and numerous restoration attempts.
Best wishes
Kevin,
A happy Brit, across the pond in the UK.
p.s. This message was sent via my iPad !!!  Ha ha

  • IPad freezes when skypeing, any solution?

    iPad freezes when skypeing, any solutions?

    Based on the limited info you provided, update iOS Nd the Skype app.
    First reboot the iPad by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings

  • IOS 7, The 5 finger pinch to home keeps freezing my iPad mini. Any solutions?

    When I use the 5 finger pinch to home operation sometimes it will freeze the iPad screen and I have to use the two bottom restart to unfreeze it. Just wandering if this is an issue for anyone else and if Apple knows about this issue.

    Thanks I did full restore as instructed. It was okay again and when I restore my backup it suffered the same problem. So I tried to go to settings> general> reset > reset all setting, it solved my problem. I don't know the root cause of the problem, but before I used assistive touch, emoji, Japanese keyboard and highlight to speak.

  • Started getting repeat copies of deleted emails on iPhone and iPad, but not iMac...any solutions?

    I've started getting repeat copies of deleted emails, every time I turn on my iPhone or iPad...but not my Mac...any solutions?
    Thanks

    The inkjet spam email is the same one that is causing my iPad's issue! I'm having the exact same problem as you're having --touching the email or having the email at the top of the screen freezes/shuts down ipad. I've been to two Apple stores and no one seems to know what's going on, plus, they claim they haven't heard of this problem i suggested they go to the Apple Commnity to get a feel for what's going on.
    No, the issue has never been resolved!!

    HI,
    10.5.1 500 Internal Server Error
    The above error says Presentation services not running.
    Using this command you can check:
    Open --> Run--> Cd OBIEE_Home\Instance/Intstace / bin> opmnctl status
    Try to stop services and again restart the all services.
    stop the all services = opmnctl stop all
    Start the services = opmnctl start all
    I guess you installation not done completely.
    Please refer the below link try to install freshly.

  • Since updating to IOS 8.1 on ipad mini can't download apps.  Apps show "waiting." Have reset to new condition with no improvement.  Any solution?

    Since updating to IOS 8.1 on ipad mini can't download apps from iTunes store.  Apps show "waiting." Have reset to new condition with no improvement.  Also turned off Wi-Fi and re-connected.   Any solution?  Thanks,

    If you restored your iPad as new, and it still didn't help, I don't know if anything in here will help. in any event, I have posted this boilerplate of suggestions many times in the past and the suggestions in here have worked for others at one time or another. Feel free to give them a try.
    1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
    2. 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 - let go of the buttons.
    3. Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. If you see a downloads tab in the lower right corner, then there is a download in iTunes.
    4. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    5. You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again. Apps may also be able to be deleted in Settings>General>Usage>Storage if you cannot get the X to pop up on the icon.
    6. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    7. Reset your router. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again.

    There are numerous reports of this issue happening on iPhones. It may be a glitch that will need a new update. Some find that a full shut-down and restart fixes that problem, but not always.

    I had this problem.  I held down the power switch to power down completely.  Takes a few seconds.  Then use the power switch to turn on.  Might take a couple goes.

    although i ran GBX6 under 10.5.8, i do believe an intel processor is required. that means that the only complete solution would be a new computer, i'm afraid.
    the best you could do is export each track as an audio file from GBi and drop them into your GBX project

  • Primarily using the ipad air as an art portfolio but photos i upload in order get rearranged. other than changing the date they were shot, is there any solution to this? can they be reorganized in iphoto on the ipad?

    primarily using the ipad air as an art portfolio but photos i upload in order get rearranged. other than changing the date they were shot, is there any solution to this? can they be reorganized in iphoto on the ipad?

    You are welcome.
    Sorting and organizing photos on IOS devices is one of the things that really need to be improved. It looks like the developers simply did not expect the users to want to keep large photo libraries on an IOS device, where the ordering would matter. I'd send feedback to the developer team, so that they see, what the users want and need:
    You can use this form:  Apple - iPhoto - Feedback
