Hello,


Try resetting iPad's network settings in Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Be certain you do not select Erase All Content and Settings as this will erase all of your information. It is a good idea to perform a backup of your iPad prior to resetting its settings.


If you can't connect a Bluetooth accessory to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
