Try Settings/General/auto lock and change it to "never".
If you choose to do this, you risk leaving all your data exposed in case of loss or theft or your iPad. The passcode lock is adjustable in increments as a security measure.

I have a second iPad that does not drop it at all, so I don't think it is the router. Any suggestions for settings to check? Thank you.

Called Apple support and to make a long story shorter they replaced it as it was only a few weeks old. Well guess what! The new iPad does the same thing!! My iPad 2 NEVER drops the signal. I'm starting to wish I had never bought the iPad 3 ! If you're on the fence- DON'T BUY THE 3 YET!! I'm sure this is an issue that Apple has not owned up to yet. I have an iPhone 4, my wife has iPhone 4, and a Kindle Fire. None of these drop the wi-fi like the iPad 3 does.
