Hmm. . . . I'm not exact sure if everyone else is having this same problem like me but my WIFI for my iPad2, my iPod Touch, and MACBOOK appears to have some problems connecting and/or holding a WIFI connection to my DLINK DIR-655 router. I'm using the latest firmware for all devices . . .

The weird thing is I'm only having this problem with APPLE products. My PC laptop, WIFI connected desktop PC, and PS3 don't appear to be having any WIFI connection issues. Is anyone else having the same problem right now? It generally happens only when I have other 2.4ghz devices running at the same time ie: baby monitor.

I expect that ALL devices would have the same issue but it's only APPLE products that are experiencing the connection issues. Is this something that is known to APPLE or just a weird phenomenon in my house?

i think its your dlink..:( i have a dir-615 and this idiot of a wireless router goes to sleep (there is no setting)...you need to have something on and connected to it (either wifi or direct connection) to keep the wifi alive...

I have the same router and don't have any issues with wireless. I've connected iPhones, macbooks,macbook pros to it just fine. The 655 is an extremely stable router.

i want to get an ipad2 for my parents. can you watch non-youtube videos on the ipad? (specifically the ones on online.film4vn.us ....does anyone want to test it out for me? :))

insomniac 04-12-2011 10:57 PM

wheres the cheapest place to get ipads brand new?
or is every place the same?
i need to get around 10 ish.
does anyone have hookups?
is it cheaper down in the states?

CP.AR 04-12-2011 11:12 PM

^ If you want, I can help you reserve one for a small fee of $10 :) you come and pick it up with me though (I've been selling a few so my credit card's gonna burst real soon):D
lemme know!

and yes, about $10 cheaper in the states and tax difference. But I wouldn't gamble with the border

Didn't you just sell your new iPad? lol?

insomniac 04-13-2011 08:34 PM

@Captain Picard ygpm! check your facebook!
i need the ipads asap.

@LiquidTurbo yeah i did but im helping someone get them

do ipads still come with smart covers or is that dealio over?

Bender Unit 04-13-2011 09:46 PM

What do you mean by come with Smart Cover ?
Smart Cover is an accessorie selling for $45 :fullofwin:
Apple Store have quite a few last week

LiquidTurbo 04-14-2011 07:28 AM

I don't think iPads ever came with a smart cover? That would've been a great deal... I mean that thing will be the biggest source of accessory revenue for Apple.

It's not like the thing functions incorrectly without it.. like the iPhone antenna issues.

freakshow 04-14-2011 09:09 AM

I don't know if the Captain is just trying to make money off people, but you can reserve iPads at all the store locations. Go online at 9PM, and just reserve it through apple.ca. You can pick it up the next day at the Apple store that you chose. It's still a bit of a battle though, because they'll sell out in < 10 mins, but its also free... and possibly more convenient.

LiquidTurbo 04-14-2011 11:09 AM

Lol Captain Picard, you a licensed RS sponsor?? :D

My 32gb 3G white's refund date is coming up on tuesday

If I can't find a buyer on Craigslist/Vansky by Saturday afternoon, I will sell it on RS for the exact same dollar amount listed on my receipt from the Apple Store. Maybe I'll help someone who really wants it out

The total comes to $840.22: Hell I'll even give you the receipt

$749 X 1.12 = $838.88.... where's the extra $1.34 coming from? :troll:

CP.AR 04-14-2011 10:10 PM

environmental recovery fee 1.20

kluk 04-16-2011 01:43 AM

anybody know where i can buy the zagg invisishield (back part only) locally? I've been to places like futureshop + bestbuy but they only carried the front part. I didn't want to get it online cuz they were charging 15bucks for shipping so i thought i'd ask here first.

It's for the Ipad 2

TIA
