Yesterday we reported on the early issues plaguing the early adopters of the Apple iPad. Problems include weak Wi-Fi performance and sensitivity to high temperatures.
It appears that Apple has quietly acknowledged some of the Wi-Fi issues in an update to its support site.
Apple described the Wi-Fi problem symptoms as, "Under certain conditions, iPad may not automatically rejoin a known Wi-Fi network after restart or waking from sleep. This can occur with some third-party Wi-Fi routers that are dual-band capable when: * Using the same network name for each network; * Using different security settings for each network."
Apple suggests a solution of giving each Wi-Fi band a different SSID name but both bands to have the security type.
