Wifi issues on IPad 2

I am attempting to use an extended wifi network. I am unable to connect because it prompts me for a username and password as authentication. Where do I find that? My wii network username and password do not work. Thanks for any suggestions

Thanks for this guidance.  However, what concerns me is that I did not have these problems until I upgraded to IOS 8.  First to version upgrade 8.1 and to see if my problems would be resolved, the other day I upgraded to IOS 8.3.  I still have problems with being dropped off of the wifi network in my house.  More discouraging is the fact that the strength of the signal to my Ipad 2 is LESS than in the past (only one bar).  Then I often get kicked off the system and have to go into it again.  My newer Iphone 5C continues to have a strong wifi signal even if I am sitting in the same chair.  Very odd...
I know a lot of people are having issues with the IOS 8 and various upgrades.  My ipad 2 is older, and I am considering purchasing a newer version like Ipad Air 2.  Do you think a newer device like that would give me good internet connection and strong signal as I had before?
Thanks for listening....

  • IOS 8.1 WiFi issues on iPad Air

    Dear Apple Support Community,
    I wonder, if anyone else has the same issue as me:
    If I don't use my iPad Air I turn the Fly Mode on. If I use it I turn it off and the iPad is connecting itself to my WiFi network. After some seconds the WiFi connection is interrupted and it taked some seconds to definitely connects itself again and finally to the WiFi network.
    My iPhone 5s (iOS 8.1) or my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.10) do not have this issue.
    Also my WiFi connection is good and stable. The issue appears since my iPad Air uses iOS 8.
    In advance I thank you for any help.

    Hello valleydog,

  • Wifi issues with iPad mini since iOS 8 update

    I Have a First Gen iPad Mini now running on iOS 8.1 . Since the original update of IOS8 . I have had issues with Wifi it connects disconnects itself always looking for a signal.. Nerve had this issue before update of the new IOS 8. It's extremming slow and the apps and Safari keep crashing.. It becomes unresponsive unable to click on website . It also freezes .. I've have numberous  times  done a complete factory reset . Still having issues. I have reset my router and I don't have any issues with any wifi at the house. I do have a iPhone 5 that had the exact issue as my IPad mini but it was replaced under warranty via Best Buy. When I reciecevd my iPhone it was still operating on IOS 7 . The gentlemen at Geek Sqd told me to NOT to upgrade the software till Apple gets a fix.. They had a lot of people in with the same problem and there devices needed to be replaced. My last resort would be to go to the Apple Store and hopefully they can help or buy a new IPad. As far as the new iPad Air2 I have seen here they too are having issues.. Hopefully Apple can fix this soon.. Till then I will not be upgrading my iPad if a new one will have the same issues..

    My iPad Mini 32GB w/4GB free space is working OK.
    Downloaded IOS 8.1 thru iTunes on iMac
    Unplug cord from iMac
    iPad
    Reset all Settings
    Reset Network Settings
    Hook up iMac and iPad then trust computer
    Computer accept iPad
    Download Camera Roll pics to iMac
    Complete iPad Auto download to iMac in iTunes
    Sign on to iTunes
    Log on to Wi-Fi
    Unplug iPad from iMac and all is good so far after 2 hours.

  • Wifi issue between ipad and freebox

    Since I received and installed my freebox revolution (I had before a bbox), my ipad is not working any more in Wifi. Wifi Speed is very low preventing me to use my IPad to watch TV programm in streaming or download application.  How can I solve this issue?

    When you place a document into iCloud from your Mac and then try to open it on a mobile device, you will be given the option of opening the original document or opening a copy. It sounds to me that you have chosen to open a copy.

  • Wifi issue new ipad

    ok people, I understand many have issues with the wi-fi connection. In my case, measured with speedtest.net, compared side by side laptop and ipad.
    laptop ~ 1.5mbs download (I know, crappy hours + comcast)
    ipad ~ 0.5 mbs download
    so, when an explanation and/or fix?
    thanks.

    I recently experienced wifi problem with the new Ipad3. I was at the Philippine airport and been trying to connect for hours while waiting for the boarding time but never succeeded. First, I thought that the wifi-router must be defective until I asked fellow passengers if they are connected - and they are. The ipad can search for the available wifi's but cannot connect to any of them ( I mean the free ones at the airport)
    After arriving in Singapore, I asked for an access username and password at the information counter. Good, I was able to connect but experienced a lot of cut-outs even though the signal is good.
    A friend recently send me a report about wifi connectivity, and before I thought it was a wifi problem.
    Will apple be able to solve this with a software upgrade? or this is really a hardware problem?
    Please tell me if you are experiencing the same thing on your new Ipad3

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • IPad 2 WiFi Issue Answered (possibly)

    Hi All,
    It turns out that there may be an issue with all the ipad 2's. I have even been to an apple store and demonstrated to the manager this issue. It appears whenever your hand holds the ipad near the speaker (landscape mode most commonly) the wifi strength is significantly reduced and once 5-10m away from a modem/router it actually drops out. I have tried this with 4 different modems/routers with the same result. I have also demonstrated this to the manager at JB HiFi where i just returned my 64gb 3G black ipad 2. I don't know how this issue has not been formally verbalised as yet. After seeing the genius bar at the apple store I asked for the manager and told her about the problem which she ended up telling me if you don't think you can deal with it return it. I tried to deal with it but in the end it got to me. I am disappointed at firstly I could not just get a replacement because they all do it and secondly that apple would release a product with such a fundamental flaw. I can not believe that this was not picked up in testing of the unit before release or were apple rushing this product out before they were ready. The shortage may be an indication. I did love my ipad 2 although the wifi issue ruined it. I hope this sheds some light on some of the wifi issues for some users. Let me know if this helps.
    Matt,

    I am disappointed at firstly [SIC] I could not just get a replacement because
    they all do it and secondly that apple would release a product with such
    a fundamental flaw.
    How is this a fundamental flaw? This is a device with a radio transmitter/receiver in it. It has to go somewhere or it would not have wireless capabilities. It is a handheld device, no matter where Apple puts it, someone will want to cover that spot, whether with their hand or by placing it in their lap. If you have seen a teardown of the iPad 2, most of the inside is taken up by the batteries and the electronics are placed around the edges. I would imagine that wi-fi was placed near the speakers because folks are least likely to cover the speakers if they are listening to something.
    Next you will be telling us that the camera is a fundamental flaw as well because some fool somewhere will just have to hold the iPad 2 where the camera is located and so they cannot enjoy making FaceTime calls!
    This is good to know, but in the larger scheme of the iPad 2, it is a giant non-issue.

  • 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
