Wifi at Toronto Public Library

[clrk9000]

I used to be able to connect with the Wifi at Toronto Public Library with no issues.

Today, I went there and discovered that although I could connect, I could NOT get pass through the web based authentication.

Ordinarily, I would have concluded that the problem is with the library wifi if not for the fact that I recently updated my ipad's firmware to iOS 4.3.3

Please share experience of ipad users here in Toronto.

I am not careful not to blame my ipad which I dearly love because the last time I did it was my Belkin N+ router causing the problem. Belkin subsequently released a firmware fixing the issues.

This has resolved many issues and worth a try.

- Sometimes after you perform a upgrade from say iOS 3. to iOS 4.2 *the iPad or iPhone wifi or 3G speeds *may be slow.*
- This is an easy fix which does work. Please do the following:
-*
1. Go to Settings->General->Reset
2. Then select "Reset Network Settings" (this will not erase ur devices content, music, videos, email, etc. It will only erase any WiFi networks you have defined).
3. Once your device completes the action and gives you the normal home screen or Passcode screen, go ahead and power your device down and once you are sure the device is fully powered down wait an additional 60sec to allow internal components to fully discharge.
4. After the 60sec is up, power on your device again and re-add any encrypted WiFi networks you had defined.
5. Enjoy the "back to normal" WiFi and 3G speeds like you had prior to the OS upgrade.*
