Am I the only one having ios 6 ipad 3 wi-fi issues

after my update to ios 6 I tried to set up the ipad and it was unable to join the network....so since then I have reset the network settings, NO SOLUTION!... tried messing with my wireless router settings and switching different channels NO SOLUTION!! , and also reinstalled ios 6 to see if that was the issue....NO RESOLVE!

I have come to terms with the fact that my ipad was fine and connected easily before ios 6 with ios 5, so its not my router or wifi settings.....and my ipod touch 4g was updated to ios 6 as well and it connects absolutely fine to my wifi now.....SO SO FAR I AM VERY FRUSTRATED WITH THE UPDATE!

What if this is actually trying to contact Apple's servers immediately after it connects (maybe as a way to map access points for location assistance no Wi-Fi-only devices?) The servers are down and that's why everyone is getting burned at the same time... but it was working for you earlier.

Same issue.....

New iPad

iOS6

Network that works well with any device other than newly upgraded iPad

Clearly there is a bug with the upgrade

I can connect to the WIFI and browse until the Login page pops up shortly and bring me to an Apple site that says 'Page not found'

No solution yet, Apple be resolve immediately. I need it for work too!

Same issue. Neither iPad or IPhone 4s will connect to netgear router. Ugh. Sorry the new phone is in the mail to me. What nonsense.

First they take away YouTube, now this sh*t. This is the last time I upgrade right after the soft has been made available.

It is acting like a wifi provider account on routers it doesn't understand. Which is strange since I only use AirPort extremes or expresses. But, same here. it connects then redirects to apple which is looking for a provide page. This is a hugh problem and I am happy that I told most of my employees to wait a week before ugrading. Now, it is just mine, the boss, that is in trouble.

Same issue.
Worked perfectly fine on Time Capsule at home.

Come to work which is a Belkin F7D3302 both my iPad 3 and iPhone 4 cannot connect.

WPA/WPA2-PSK

Channel 4

Wireless working fine on my Macbook Pro 10.8.2.

So far you're the only one that has the same symptoms as me. Mine connects for about 2 seconds and then kicks me off, and a second later a "Log In" popup window slides up from the bottom, as if I'm trying to join a restricted hotel network or something and being directed to a login site, but the site's URL at the top reads just "http://www.apple.com" and the page itself is an apple.com 404.

I'm on an iPhone 4. Not sure what router.. it's my landlord's network so I may never know unless I can catch him. It's a WPA2 secured network with a password, which it does ask me for when I "forget this network" and reconnect.

I tried a hard reset and resetting network settings. I had no problems ever until the iOS 6 upgrade.

I had the same wifi problems with the weird "page not found" and I fixed it with a full reset (Settings>General>Reset>"Reset All Settings").

Exact same problem here also with iPod Touch 4. Good thing I didn't update my iPad too. What a joke!

Sep 19, 2012 4:29 PM in response to johnhansenCopenhagen

This is defintely a problem on one of Apple's servers and not from the iOS 6 update. I updated over the weekend and haven't had the problem until I got home from work today. Hopefully they'll have the site back up soon.

Sep 19, 2012 4:30 PM in response to phantomette1

I have iPad 2 wifi and 3g ATT and iPhone 4S Sprint. Both just updated at my office. Both failing to connect to wifi network. Guy in next office same thing with his iPhone after iOS 6 update.

Join Network - just fine

Ask for Password for WiFi - just fine

Next screen is Apple Login, page cannot be found

Hurry Apple!!
