So, remove the network, and add it back.

System updates often require a full restart after an update. On rare occasion, as you have discovered, it may be necessary to rejoin an active network.


In most cases, your WiFi credentials will be stored in your Keychain. Where your device is set to Auto Join, reconnection to an available WiFi network should be automatic.


If the iPad disconnects when idle (sleep/locked), or after an update, you may need to verify the your WiFi Settings for each of your configured WiFi Networks - ensuring that they are set to Auto Join:

Settings > WiFi > [WiFi Network / SSID] - tap the “i” icon - set Auto-Join to ON


Unless Auto-Join is enabled, your iPad will not automatically reconnect to the WiFi network when resuming from sleep - or when coming into range of your WiFi network.


Auto-Join is enabled/disabled for each configured WiFi network.
