Q: iPad 3 Why 3G does not work after being on WiFi

When I take my iPad 3 out of my house, I have to reboot it to get a 3G connection. The 3g icon shows that it is connected but when I try and access any connection it says no internet connection. My iPad 1 seemed to work ok. I've also tried putting it in Airplane mode and back again but this has no effect.

Any suggestions please? Many thanks.

iPad (3rd generation) Wi-Fi + 4G, iOS 5.1

    Sorry to bump an old thread, but I'm currently having the exact same issue with my iPhone 5s. I'm with Starhub in Singapore.

     

    There are 2 issues:

    - When I turn airplane mode off and on, the phone does not connect to mobile data. This was fixed by selecting the carrier manually.

     

    - When I walk out of a wifi area, the phone does not connect back to 3G/4G. I need to restart the phone to make it work. This does not happen all the time, but happens at least once per day. It doesn't happen on most weekends though. Very strange.

     

    When I put another sim card (from the same carrier or another carrier) there are no issues whatsoever. When I test my sim on another phone or on my iPad 2, no issue either.

     

    So far Starhub has no idea what's going on, and the company that handles support for Apple here keeps saying it's a network issue.

     

    Anyone else experiencing this issue on the iPhone 5s?
