iPad wifi antenna low coverage

Hi, i recently (5 days ago) changed my old iPad pro 32GB 9,7 inches wifi only for a new iPad pro 1TB 11 inches wifi only, and i´ve been experiencing low signal issues in my home in the exact same place where my old ipad didn´t has any issues. I have tried both iPads and the new one has the issue.

Any ideas?

Ideas, yes - lots of possibilities - including but not limited to:

Have you put your new iPad Pro in a case, a folio cover, or a Smart Keyboard? All these can potentially affect signal reception.
Consider the WiFi band(s) that your network and device are using. It can sometimes be helpful to “split” your 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks on your home router - and force your iPad to use on or other band by preference. If your router is using a common SSID for both bands, then your iPad will try to decide which to use - which might not be the best option.
Try resetting your iPad Network Settings. This will often resolve unexpected throughput issues.
You might (unlikely) have a hardware fault on your iPad.

The above is not an exhaustive list. Without a better idea of your complete network setup, it’s quite difficult to give definitive advice.

I hope this proves to be of some help to you.

Thank you! I tried the first two with no difference. It seems resetting my iPad network settings solved it. I still have to give it a try for a few more days.

Thxx again
