Apple is owning up to the Wi-Fi problems plaguing iPad owners and is purportedly preparing a software update, according to a new tech note. The source mentions that, "Apple will also address remaining Wi-Fi connectivity issues with a future iPad software update."
The problems that have been reported include forgotten network passwords, weak Wi-Fi signals, and other networking issues. Apple does note, however, that these issues affect only a "small number" of iPads.
If you are having problems and want a quick solution (other than waiting around on Apple), then there are a few options listed in the same tech note, including:
- Update your Wi-Fi router firmware
- Use a WPA or WPA2 wireless security
- Adjust the screen brightness
- Renew the IP address of the device
Apple doesn't give a specific date of when this update will hit the streets, but for those experiencing problems, the update can't come soon enough.
