Ipad issue with wifi - algorithms
This worked on my 16 gb wifi version.
I believe this problem might be based on the current algorithm values which lie within the internal commands of the ipad. I think the problem might be that these algorithms are not currently compatible with all wifi routers)
I'd imagine apple will announce a firmware upgrade soon, but for the time being, after trying everythhing posted, this is the only thing that has worked for me.
Since my solution is all based on various algorithms with precise numeric timing as to when the wifi will auto disconnect, i recommend using a stopwatch to confirm you are doing this precise accuracy.
I am not quite sure of every algorithm configuration within the routers, but most are based on this.
With that being said, you may want to just wait a little longer for apple since this process is a bit challenging.
But if you're up for it, see below.....
As soon as your connection first drops, count to 21 before adjusting any settings.
Next, slide the brighten button to the maximum level for 55.5 seconds
The network should connect within this time. If it does not, i'll explain what to do below...
But assuming you see it connected, turn off the device completely powering it down. Next: Count to 13, and turn on and off as fast as possible
The network should now be displayed.
if the network didnt show up after counting to 21 and 55 seconds, your router algorithm values may be set to another coding requiring a bit more time. Try 34 and 89 seconds instead of 21 and 55 respectively.
But just to be sure, try the following....
repeat of the above, but prior to counting to 13, point the device directly at the router.
While holding towards the router, adjust the settings to minimum brightness, then count to 8 instead of 13. (dont know why, but this worked for a friend of mine)
Reboot the device again.
You will need to repeat this process 5 times for it to be permanently fixed. (if 5 doesnt work, try 8).
I needed 5 times, my friend needed 8 times.
I did these steps and have a full working ipad since 8am.
My friend has his working for 3 days.
Hope this helps.
