Wifi issues on iPad

i started facing wifi reception issues as soon as I updated it to iOS 8.2. Now even after updating it to iOS 8.3, the issue hasn't solved. I tried resetting everything. i also tired restoring the iPad to factory default settings but no. It didn't help. Is there any way out or am I supposed to wait for iOS 8.4? Please help.

IPad 3 , iOS 8.3

you don't have to look very far to determine that the whiz kids from Cupertino failed to solve the wifi issues. My iPad Air constantly drops the network and searches for a new connection constantly. Tried all the fixes suggested with no success. No way to roll back even with iDevice hacks as the Crapple folks no longer sign the release. So....until the Cupertino bunch fix the problem, there is a plethora of unhappy iDevice users. I guess the message is never be first to upgrade or the last. It looks like 8.3 broke as much as it fixed.😠

Hey guys I got the solution. I erased all the contents and settings on my iPad I.e. restored it to factory setting. Then I just set it up as a new iPad and not from iCloud or iTunes backup. And yes. After leaving it connected to the wifi for the whole night say for 7 hours without using it I got the wifi reception strength. Yeah.

Thanks for trying to fix it, and well done, you have fixed it now.

Hi Kartik,


After upgrading my iPad 4 to the latest iOS version 8.3, I was seeing wifi issues too. Tried pretty much all the troubleshooting steps that I came across here in the forum and also online but nothing helped. However few days back I disabled Bluetooth & restarted my iPad after that. To my surprise the wifi issues that I have been seeing disappeared :-).


If you are still seeing wifi issues, try this option & see if that works.
