Calling IT experts - Ipad not working on Virgin Broadband

[Wibble]

I'm having real problems connecting our Ipad to our Virgin Media wireless. Laptops etc work fine on it but ipad not playing ball frustratingly. Virgin customer services won't help and instead want ?70 or so to refer me to an IT consultant.

Anyone else had similar problems and found a solution? Someone has previously mentioned changing router settings etc but need more detail...

Thanks in advance

Have you a tech savvy youngster in the house who might be annoyed with you?

They could easily have gone into the router admin and banned the mac address.

More likely that your iPad is fucked I'm afraid. Apple centre can sometimes take pity on you and replace it.

Ha, no if I had one of those it would be fixed again by now! I only ask as the ipad works on anyone else's networks I take it to (Sky etc) but just won't connect to Virgin annoyingly.

cheers

very odd.

I can't remember there being a limit to the number of devices on the router, but perhaps that's the issue.

I might have a look when I get home as i have a virgin router too.

You can kick devices off from the advanced bit of the control panel.

To get to it I think you just go http://192.168.0.1

or was it http://192.168.0.2 ?

then 'admin' and your password

Thanks will have a play around in there and see if there's anything obvious amiss
