Not sure if this is a common issue or if there is a fix for it.

But it seems with my iPad, when I wake it up from sleep (closing the lid), half of the time it can't seem to reconnect to my WiFi router anymore. Even if I shut off the iPad or turn off/on the WiFi on the iPad, it still won't work. It'll scan and find the Wireless Networks, but only fix is I have to unplug/replug the actual WiFi router again.

I tried another iPad and I get the same issues. I tried my friend's WiFi Router at her place and same thing.

what gen is your Ipad?

no issues on my 4th gen

mine is 3rd. my friend's is 4th. i'm wondering if it has anything to do with my router settings. i didn't really touch anything, i've always had the ip assignment set as dynamic but maybe it conflicts with my other computer when it wakes up

ok i don't know what i'm talking about

Update the firmware on your router. Sounds like it has some software problems.

If you have any uninstalled updates on the ipad do the update, my wifes was doing the same thing and the software update solved the problem.

It says my IOS 6.1.3 is up to date and I don't see any pending updates.

I can update the firmware on my router, but it has the same issue with other routers too.

My android devices sometimes do this same thing and I'm not sure why.

anyone have any issues connecting Ipads to ad hoc shared wireless

im running win 7 home and cannot, for the life of me, get this to work correctly.

the only thing i have not tried is an unsecured network

wep will let me join the network but will not connect to the web / WPA2 will not let me join the network at all

ive tried every tutorial i can find and am pretty confident that i am doing this correctly. i have seen this being an issue all over the web but cannot find a viable solution.

anyone got any help. its going to be a non issue for the rest of my week and i am not really going to be testing this again until prob. tuesday when i travel for work
