Wifi issues with iOS 5.0.1

IPad 2 keeps dropping wifi signal after iOS 5.0.1 update. NOT a problem with the wifi, as my iPhone 4 also updated to 5.0.1 and it keeps the wifi just fine - that is if the battery lasted long enough to test it - the battery on the iPhone 4 DOES deplete twice as fast AFTER the update is morning!!

I have two ipad 2s- both worked beautifully at home and office----then came the system upgrade pushed out by apple---now I cant get on wifi at home unless I unplugged wifi router and let it reboot-----then it is only good for awhile and drops wifi. My sony viao laptops does perfect the whole time. Cant ask my company to reboot wifi so I cant use it at work now.

Spent 30 minutes on the phone with support--got escalted 2 levels and they will have to call me back----they acted like they did not know the problem existed. Going to the store tonight for a refund or explanation. Apparently Apple needs to be pushed into recognizing or admitting there is a problem.
