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?

Same problem here. I ran the update over wi-fi. After install restarted it kept popping that screen up. I finally had to choose skip during the iCloud setup phase (Not sure why I had to do that anyway since it was an in-place update).


Then after getting into the iPad, I manually turned WiFi back on. After a few moments the screen popped up again to log in with www.apple.com as the address and page not found. Pressing cancel then disconnects wifi.


Powering off the iPad and back on didn't help either. After a few moments the screen re-appears. I'm now thinking of doing a reset and then possible downloading from iTunes as a clean install. Too bad because I was hoping this over the air update would not require me doing all the setup efforts again, but without internet access, the iPad is not too useful.

I have a similar issue. My wifi was working, until I restarted the iPad. Then It was not working, and when I went to connect to my home network it pulled up a page (much like it would in a commercial public wifi where you have to agree to terms of service). Says Apple-page not found at top, it's on the Apple website, and the page itself is "hmm, the page you're looking for cant be found"


I haven't restarted my phone, but so far it's working.


My router is an Apple AirPort Extreme. iPad 2 64 GB wifi only.


Is everyone here using an Apple router?
