Profound ... any real answers?
We can only provide suggestions based on the info you provide. What iOS are you using? Where do you live? Has it ever worked in your local? Have you had any other issues with your home network? Can any other device use the app on this network?, throw us a bone.
We don't have a crystal ball.
iOS 6 latest version (as indicated in original post).
I live in Australia.
It has never worked when iPad accesses through home network, but no problem at work, other places etc, just at home, which makes me think it has got to do with home network firewall - but I can't figure out what.
The same is true of other iOS devices used in the house, which makes me think it is that.
But, I have no idea which firewall settings would need to be changed.
No other issues with home network.
The problem may reside with your home connection, have you tried other location based services or apps? Have you tried google maps or bing? This would help isolate the cause.
What do you mean by Maps "not working"? Doesn't draw maps? Can't locate you? What happens? What are you requesting Maps to do?
Doesn't draw maps.
Presumably this means that Maps cannot access the Apple map server. Do you get such a message?
What is set in your router firewall? Any servers blocked?
WHat settings could be preventing the network from accessing apple map servers?
You have never stated what make, model, and version WiFi router you have but some are capable of blocking access to a set of configured IP addresses or domains. You could also be having a problem with the DNS servers provided by your ISP.
I have DGND3700 (Netgear).
Does anyone know which ports and/or domains and / or ip addresses would need to be unblocked?
