Reader Walt Czeka ’s iPad has suddenly turned a blind middle to his local connection . He writes :
After using my iPad for a short clock time this good morning it suddenly would n’t recognize my AirPort web , even after I switched it off and on . I picked up my iPhone and it determine the web utterly well so I do n’t remember it ’s a internet problem . What should I do ?
There are a variety of things you could judge and they work with any router . The first ( and the one most likely to meet with achiever ) is to exclude off your iPad , extract the power plug on your AirPort base post to power it down , waitress half a minute or so , punch the base station back in , await for its green light to shine , and then switch on the iPad . This can clear out some funk in the routing portion of the substructure station , which allows your iPad ’s connection connection to return .
If this does n’t bring because the iPad ’s the funky character in this passion play , you’re able to fiddle with a dyad of its setting . First , go to configurations > Wi - Fi and toggle the Wi - Fi switchOffand then back on again .
No achiever ? Tap the blue dot icon to the right of your mesh ’s name in this same Wi - Fi pane and tapForget This web . Move back to the Wi - Fi Sir Frederick Handley Page , tap your internet ’s name , enter its word , and hope that this time it takes .
Still no ? Travel to the General mount , abstract down to the bottom of the sieve , tapReset , and tapReset internet configurations . substantiate your choice by tappingResetin the window that appears . Your iPad will reboot . Once it has , render to the Wi - Fi mount , solicit on your web ’s name , enter its password , and join in .
And then there are the more esoteric fix — changing the channel on your router and switch the router ’s security dodging . But give that your iPhone see the connection I ’ll guess with a unattackable sense of sureness that you wo n’t need to go that far .
