I am brand spanking new to the world of Apple. Just got myself a nice Ipad 4.
Been learning all the great things I can do with the pad, impressed I am.... However, there seems to be a problem, not with the hardware , but rather the iOS, in particular 6.0.1.
I can connect my wife to my home router,fritz box, if I stand within 8 m of the device, however if I head down the passage, waiting for my d-link range extender to take over, the connection drops, the pad can see the network, keeps trying to connect, lovely little spinning circles and all, three bars connected for 5 seconds and disconnects, over and over again.... My windows laptop has no problem, three bars fixed,
Go to work, sitting 4 m from the fritz box at work, connecting,nope ,disconnecting,connecting,disconnecting,pretty circles, round and round we go..... Cannot connect to the work router, laptop wifi, no problems, running like a Boeing,
Partner at work, has an iPhone, exact same problem, reckons he had no problem connecting before the upgrade to 6.0.1'
Simple deduction Watson, the problem has to be a wifi hiccup problem with iOS 6.0.1'
I had thought that this was solved on another thread,but alas 'twas not...
I have upgraded both routers and extender firmware,
I have renewed the lease,
I have turned airplane. Mode off and one , this worked for about 8 minutes,
I have reset my wifi settings,
I have rebooted the pad,this also worked for a bit then pad decided to start searching for network again,
I am now extremely frustrated,upset and hugely disappointed that Steve Jobs was not alive to see this, I am sure he would have kicked somebody,s arse from here to the moon...
If I read all the other opinions, I ain,t alone, I sit gnawing my nails, when experts tell me, that they have no problem, seems that e way it should work, the ipad should just move from network to network after they have been saved, seamlessly,grrrrr!
Question: Is there still a wifi connection problem with iOS 6.0.1 that still needs to be patched by Apple inc?
Think I am goins to eat my dinner in front of my tv now and use my new ipad as a tray!

I did screen prints of all the settings on the home router, brought it into work, and everything bar the the password and Name, are exactly the same..... the only other difference which should'nt have an affect, is the fact that the number of users on the work routers are one on the lan fixed and 4 on the wifi connection....
