Getting page not found on iPad for WiFi verification

So I just upgraded the iPad to IOS6. I connect to my wifi network, it connects, pulls up the Apple page (the one that usually pops and disappears, I guess it's checking something on that page to verify network connection). Instead of going away, it's displaying Apple's 'Page Not Found' and on the top bar it says 'www.apple.com' and 'Log in'. I have no log in for my router, I'm clearly online as I can browse all of Apple's website, yet the ONLY option I have is click 'cancel'. I used to remember you can tell it not to do a network check, I can't even turn that off.


Any one else seeing this?

Ugh. Same problem on BOTH my iPad 2 WiFi only (essentially bricking my iPad) and my iPhone 4. Very obnoxious. Not sure if related, but none of my apps installed. However, if I manually install an old app from the App Store it will put it exactly where it was located on my backup, and create the folder and everything. Very confused. Not the best software roll out Apple has ever done.... Is there any known fix?

I had this issue too, both on my ipad 3 and iPhone 4S. I worked around it by connecting to my wifi in the Settings and, once connected, and without exiting the Settings, hold down Home button and ask Siri to search for something. Wifi stays on after doing that. Can then use wifi as normal.


Don't ask me why this works but it does.

I had the same problem that everyone is describing. I was able to connect to my wifi by adding the network name manually. under choose a network in the settings, select other, and then enter the name of your network, the security type, and the password. connected no problem for me. P.S. the network name is caps sensitive.
