Facetime hangs up on iPad during long calls since installing iOS 5

Since updating to iOS 5 on the iPad 2 FasceTme has started to hang up on long calls. After about 30 minutes the connection is lost. When the other party calls back FaceTime rings and when the call is accepted it hangs up again. This also happens if the call is made from our iPad to the other party. The calls can be continued if the iPad is shut down and restarted (haven't tried quitting FaceTime and re-launching yet). This problem has happened every time a call is made for more than about 30 minutes. It did not happen on iOS 4...

It is not an internet connection problem because the same thing does not happen using FaceTime on an iMac on the same network.

Anybody having the same problem?

Dear Rob,

I am having exactly the same problem as you with Facetime. Facetime would, in the middle of the conversation, simply quit. And I would have to restart the Ipad 2 to make it work again.

Safari would do that from time to time as well (but less frequently)
