Re: Re: ipad wifi & Draytek

[Wayne <Wayne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

One extra tip I would like to add that I've found using my iPod Touch,
when I'm on the edge of range of any previously known wifi networks, the
ipod often comes up with its 'I can see these networks' dialogue and ask to
connect. If I tap on my own network and connect, it will always ask for my
passkey - even though it has previously been entered.

I've found that if ever that happens then just 'cancel' the dialogue box
that appears - to which the ipod then just manages to figure it out again
and connect.

If it's being overly stubborn - then going into the network settings,
turning it 'off and on again' normally sorts it. Beats retyping in the
passkey each time.


Cheers
Wayne.

apparently no rhyme or reason to when it occurs, doesn't always happen to
us both at the same time... - often we'll be sat next to each other
browsing on our iPods, and one of us will lose WiFi...

PITA though, as I have a long PSK key...

- I've done mine, SWMBO hasn't so perhaps we'll see a difference...

select 'Forget this network' and then reattach it to my network and it's
been fine ever since.
