iPad 10th Gen WiFi Problem.
Do any of you 10th Gen iPad owners have any issues with the device disconnecting from WiFi when it goes to sleep? Mine is driving me nuts! Either it eventually reconnects on its own or I have to restart it again to get the connection back. The WiFi icon is still always showing when the connection is lost. My iPhone SE is absolutely fine and still has the connection when the iPad has dropped out. My partner’s iPad and her iPhone are also fine. It’s even more frustrating because it’s inconsistent. Some days it happens a few times each day and then the next day it might not happen at all.
I’ve switched off the private WiFi address option - Reset my router - changed my router channels - auto join is always enabled - reset the network settings numerous times and still no change - it’s running the latest OS 17.5.1 - I’ve gone through the remote diagnostics process via the Apple Helpline and they couldn’t see any issues. I’ve since questioned the router people and they say that it won’t be a router issue because the other devices connected aren’t being affected which sounds fair enough to me.
I just wondered if it was a 10th gen iPad thing or do I maybe have a faulty device?
