Q: wi fi on a caravan site

Hi

When you try to connect click on forget this network then try again .

I use a mifi dongle when on holiday it works great for iPhone / iPad

You can get them on contact / pay & go run UPTO 10 devices just pick the network with the best

Mobile phone signal before you buy .

Cheers

You may have to look into the internet configuration settings to see if the public wi-fi is using a different

level of security setting than the iPad Air (or the Acer, etc) and also, if the iPad is looking for an Apple

network (instead of long decimal address such as 197.xxx.xxx etc, a short series that starts with 10.)

since this can also keep a wi-fi dependent device from accessing the internet.

If the 'caravan site' uses a static IP address, then it should be easier (once you learn it) to set the iPad.

You may wish to set up a temporary Location for the specific wi-fi network, if you normally use a few

that are already set up, such as home or office networks. There are more than a few info sources here:

A search using modifiers could find some matching suitable answers. I see some here...

This one has a generally OK bit of information (but puts up a window you can click an X to avoid

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/connect-ipad-to-wireless-network/

their plea for donations, due to some other problem) and I've looked it over. Other sites probably

have this information, including those from Apple Support iPad and also AirPort/TimeMachine site.

• Connect to Wi-Fi on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

{see the 'Learn More' links in the bottom of this ^ Apple Support article for more

hints, such as setting up wi-fi mode, if you'd been using data-cellular, etc.}

I've a PC based tablet someone gave me for a birthday awhile ago, and it won't go online; but I

have an Apple AirPort network that has all devices to find and make a local address based on 10.

So I have not found settings in the cheap PC that can allow me to choose; as I don't want to change

all these other products whose wi-fi works fine, and they are Apple. So it works both ways, I guess.

Good luck in this matter!

It may be that the range on your iPads wifi  is shorter and it depends on how many people are using the public wifi.

thats the problem i had.
