SOLUTION iPad iOS6 Wifi connection problem

I noticed a few threads concerning people having problems with connecting their iPad to Wifi after updating to iOS6. I was having the same problem, it was saying it was connecting but then trying to open up an apple website and telling me that the webpage could not be displayed. After I plugged in my iPad to my PC and loaded up iTunes and let it sync up that sorted the problem and I am able to connect all right again. Just though people would like to know. 🙂

iPad, iOS 6

Confirmed, this appears to fix the wi-fi drop.

I had the same issue. I don't which of the following solved the issue for me. I did a "Reset Network Settings" and a "Reset All Settings." I also did a reset (home button+power). Then I configured my wifi settings, but stayed on the "Wi-Fi" page for several minutes before moving off. I think this allowed time for all of the new apps to finish downloading.

I wonder if the wifi was overloaded causing it drop the connection. Now I seemed to be okay.

iPad2 seems more stable now, but horrible right after install of iOS6. Dropped connections every five minutes or so. Hasn't dropped for past hour or so after backing up to iTunes directly. Still, I'm not going to update my 4S until I can verify this over the next day or two.
