    • Join the network

      Verify Wi-Fi is enabled and that you are connected to a Wi-Fi network.

      Note: If the Wi-Fi network is not displayed on iPad as an available option, it may be a "closed" or "private" network. This requires entering the name to join. See this article for more information.

      Verify password

      Some Wi-Fi networks require a password to join. Password-protected Wi-Fi networks are indicated by the padlock icon Padlock icon . If you receive an error while joining a password-protected Wi-Fi network:

      • Type slowly to verify you are entering the correct password.
      • If you cannot tap Join, the password is too short for that Wi-Fi network.
      • If you don't know the password, check with the Wi-Fi network administrator.

      Check connection

      Check the Wi-Fi signal strength in the status bar or Wi-Fi menu. The more bars the stronger the signalWi-Fi signal strength indicator .

      If you only have a single bar or you still cannot locate your Wi-Fi network:
      • Move closer to the Wi-Fi access point or router.
      • Avoid potential sources of interference that can affect a Wi-Fi signal, such as concrete walls and microwave ovens.

      Next, check your connection by using Safari to open a web page.

      When using some public Wi-Fi networks, Safari may display a web page that allows you to sign in to use the service. Check this web page for additional information on signing into or subscribing to the Wi-Fi network service at that location.

      See this article for more information about using public Wi-Fi networks that require a subscription.

      Check the Wi-Fi network

      If you have a strong Wi-Fi signal, but still can't access the Internet, verify the Wi-Fi network you are using.

      • Ensure you are connecting to the correct Wi-Fi network, and not another nearby Wi-Fi network.
      • Check the cable connection to your Wi-Fi access point or router.
      • If you can't identify your Wi-Fi network due to other networks with similar names nearby, contact the ISP or manufacturer for assistance in naming your Wi-Fi network.
