You have to manually setup the ip address in the network settings. The router that you have can not assign the iPad an address.

If your ipad is connected then it might be that your router needs to reset or your internet is down. Just unplug your modem and router for 5 seconds then plug in and see if that helps it. Check if your computers can connect to the internet.

SOURCE: I had bought an ipad

I was very happy when I got my hands on the new iPad. I didn't notice this at first, but when I took the tablet into my backyard, and my iPhone was able to pick up my router signal without a hassle; the iPad didn't pick up the network at all. This became a nightmare for me. A friend suggested trying the "Forget This Network" reset method, which used to work on the older models, but this didn't improve the wifi range at all. Right when I lost all hope, I came across WIRED magazine and found a review of Pong Research cases, After seeing the great feedback on their products, I bought one and it finally solve the <a href="http://www.pongresearch.com/new-ipad.html">new iPad 3 wifi issues</a> . The back cover has a built-in antenna in between its layers, which redirects and boosts the signals and range, allowing me to getting connected from much further away.

SOURCE: iPad shows blank black screen & won't turn off ~ how do I fix?

Try reseting the iPad by holding the home and power buttons simultaneously until the iPad completely shuts down and the Apple logo appears.


Once the Apple logo appears you can release the buttons. If this does not work, you may need to connect your iPad to your computer and do a factory restore using iTunes.

SOURCE: My ipad mini keeps shutting off

I would first try doing a hard reset. Hold the home and power button down simultaneously until the iPad completely turns off and the Apple logo appears. You can ignore the slide to turn off button when it appears.
If that doesn't solve the issue I would make an appointment with your local Apple Store and have the device checked out by an Apple Genius.
Hope that helps!

How to connect to internet doesnt recognize router password

Are you sure of Wifi password is correct?
if so, 1st; try restarting your ipad by holding down power/sleep button untill it show "Slide to shut down" leave it off for 10 seconds & then re-open it.enter the Wifi -password, sometimes this step works.

2nd solution ; try resetting your iPad network settings, it will not affect your ipad in any thing except it will forget all entered passwords for any wifi you have already connected before. go to General from Setting, choose resett, and inside only reset network setting, shut down ipad & try to connect to the wifi again. Hope this solution work for you. Also you may try shutting down & opening your router again after 10 seconds while off. Good Luck.

I need to update my ipad mini to 9.3 to run an app. I get the error message that the device is not connected to the internet but it is !!

Good morning to you.
what I do to ensure that my mini pad is connected is to be near the router and:
  • I go to settings and look at the Wi-fi and see if my service provider is there
  • then I see if I can open a newspaper, I use that web paper to find out if I am connected
  • if this works I know I'm connected.
  • if that does not work I go back to settings
  • and Wi Fi that opens for available connections
  • choose your connection
  • write the password on the password line
That procedure helps me.

How do I stay connected to the Internet when I leave my house?

You have a WiFi device that must send/receive signals from your home wireless system. That generally doesn't extend much out of the home. You need to find a free wifi zone or kupgrade to an iPad with cellular service that connects you like a built-in phone.

Black screen keeps popping up while playing words with friends

I would reset the iPad and remove running apps you don't use.
press t.he home button twice and swipe all screens up, to close running apps. After that, press both the home button and the on/of button for several seconds, till the Apple loge comes on the screen. Then wait a minute to switch the iPad on. Could solve a lot. If not, check your wireless connection.

Can I browse the internet on an ipad mini??

Of course. You first must be connected to the Internet via wi-fi or cellular connection (not all iPads have cellular). Once you have set that up (which is one of the first things you do when you set up an iPad), the Safari browser (the icon with the compass) and many (most?) apps connect to the Internet. Although you can look things up through the browser, many services have separate apps to perform their function, e.g. Yelp, Facebook. Apps like Weather retrieve their information from the Internet without having to go to a specific site, and apps like Notes sync your notes on the Internet (and may be available on your computer, as a result).

In fact, a large proportion of your activities on the iPad can't take place without a connection to the Internet.

Can't connect mini iPad to my wifi my other iPad is connected

Always a good idea to shut down and then turn back on (hold down both home button and power button until it turns all the way off. Wait a couple seconds, then press the power button to turn back on)

Try wireless again.

If nothing, then

Obviously check and make sure wifi is on under settings.

If still nothing,

Try resetting your network connections:
Settings > General, then tap Reset > Reset Network Settings

If you can't see any wifi networks at all, you might have a bad wifi card in the iPad. Bring back to an apple store.
