IPad 2 keeps disconnecting from WiFi!!! Anyone have a fix?

I have 2 iPad 2's and they are both having trouble staying connected to wifi. It hasn't always been like this but I don't recall when it started. My iPad is updated with the latest upgrade but the other one still needs to get the last upgrade so i doubt the upgrade is issue her. I tried to reset network setting, take off the auto brightness and so on. Oh, and by the ways all our other apple and non apple devices work perfectly with the wifi, so it's only our iPads. I'm desperate!! Help!!?????

iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 5.1.1

All good suggestions, as I was totally bummed about the same issue that I had net had before. Get this... On my wifi connect the button on "Ask to Join Other Ntworks" was on off. As soon as I turned it on the wifi reconnects and stays connected. I think that happened when I upgraded and must have reset as a default. EASY fix and now I'm happy and connected!!

Hi, just to let you all know that the wifi connection in my IPad 2 has been bothering for some time, always having to switch off and then on wifi.

But today the sun just shone.

After trying lot's of configurations, I just disabled the WMM in the wireless settings of my router (TP-Link WR841ND), and no more switching wifi off and on.

Hope it works for someone with similar annoying problems.

All the best!
