Q: iPad shows that I'm connected to wifi in top left and in settings, but can't access internet. Help!

So here's what's happening. Right around the time iOS 8 came out my iPad started to say that it was connected to wifi but wouldn't let me access the internet(this only happens at my house. Everywhere else it works just fine). Then at random intervals it would grant me access back to the internet. A while later i had cracked my screen and sent it to my insurance company to be repaired. When i got it back, it was repaired with a new screen but at my house it would not give me those random intervals at all! I am now just flat out not connected to the internet on my iPad. All other devices and computers connect to the internet though, but my iPad doesn't.

iPad 4

iOS 8.2

Device management: Cisco Meraki (this is one of my personal suspects, but i need it for school)

 

Before I start getting suggestions, let me state what i have tried first:

Completely turning off the iPad and restarting it after 30 seconds

Resetting network settings

Rebooting router

Checking to make sure numbers are right in network settings

 

And also what i have singled out as NOT the problem:

The network DNS/Router setting starting with 169

Not being within range of the router

Simply a router that does not work

Incorrect numbers punched into the wifi settings

It being just Safari

Too low battery

Broken device

 

 

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance
