Try resetting the network connections to see if that makes a difference. Some Members have found that, when they experience this problem, they tell the iPad to forget all the WiFi network connections and then re-establish them.
If that doesn't work, let us know and we'll suggest some other possibilities.

Thanks
I have reset quite a few times
I have now added the iPad mac address into my router and assigned a fixed ip. Will let you know if it works
There are loads of posts on the Internet about intermittent wifi connection on the latest iPad software so I'm clearly not alone!

No - you're right - there do seem to be 'issues' - let us know how you get on...

I'd suggest give the iPad a fixed ip like 192.168.0.200 and set the auto range in your DHCP SERVER (look in your router) to be below that address

Hmmm! Could guarantee improvements, as depends what the issue is.
Later routers do tend to have more range and better correction.
My 'trick' helps by making a short term disconnection less noticeable, because the DHCP server is not looking up and allocating a free address to the iPad every time it reconnects.
If you have a lot of local WiFi activity, your old router may be getting swamped, if you do change, don't buy the cheapest.

What ever you do do not waste your money on buying the new one, this piece of junk will give you more wifi 3g trouble than you already have, how i miss my ipad 1 which gave me no trouble whatsoever, i admit i was one who was sucked in by apple into buying this new unreliable rubbish which in all honesty isnt much of an upgrade from the ipad 2 anyway
