Has anyone had any luck solving this issue yet? I'm having the EXACT same issue and spent an hour on with Apple today. Here's the info so far...
NETGEAR WN3000 Wi-fi extender is connected and broadasting. My Laptop and Iphone are all linked in and fully connected. Pulling up pages and all.
However, my iPad will not. Looks like im connected, I have full signal and even an IP address but Safari cannot open nor will ANY apps that require internet access.
Apple is convinced its hardware and wants to send me a new iPad. If after my restore later, and nothing works. Then thats the route i must go.
But here are my questions?
How is it that everything else is connected but the iPad? When I go into the main house and use the connection without the extender, then the iPad works fine! So how can it be hardware?
The problem is when i walk back to my house (30 yards away) and connect to the extender, I seem to have a full working signal but nothing will load. Just sits there and says loading until eventually it times out.
This is what ive done....
First we "forgot the network" and rebooted. No dice
We went into Settings and "reset network settings" rebooted. No dice
She even had me finally just "reset ALL settings" and that still didnt work
We restarted the router, and re-made the connection with the extender. (nothing changed)
after all this, we have no more ideas but to do a complete restore. I REALLY dont want to do that, nor do i want to send it back and wait for another. I will definitely do what I need to do but im hoping someone else out there has run into this issue and resolved it without a restore.
even odder still, up until last night, everything has been fine. iPad has been fully connected.
I was on my Windows laptop watching NetFlix at 1am when the internet went out. I restarted my router and extender and the ipad wouldnt connect. Everything else came back online right away, except the iPad.
Fingers crossed that someone has solved this. if i get any more info from Apple ill be sure to post back.
