Loads of people talking technical Censored about router settings on the internet, I only know that mine works fine with my apple time capsule wireless N router and various routers at friends & families houses.
I used it in 3 different hotels across 3 countries earlier this month when on a business trip and there were no issues with dropped connections except in Budapest when the hotel required you logged in via a web portal. But I had the same issue with my iPhone so cannot blame the iPad 2 for that.

As NickM has said, take it back directly to Apple, see a 'Genius' instore and see if they can't swap it out for you.

Spoke to Apple but they say as I bought it from PCworld they must sort it - Apple are normally excellent when I buy from them Rolling Eyes

PCworld say apple built it so legally they must sort it - this is not true but typical of them Evil or Very Mad

Had problems with PCworld before and said I would never buy from them but got caught up in the launch frenzy and only they had stock so thought Apple product - what can go wrong Censored Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Poland 2006 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Rimini Red

for videos there is no need to convert files, which is a hassle and time consuming. there are lots of apps that play videos in all formats without conversions. I tried many. My personal best is AVPlayerHD, which also reads subtitles (not soo important for English native speakers).
With the use of a pen drive, apple cck and ifile you can also upload movies directly from pen drive to ipad without using pc. My name: Patryk

Did you update software?

Sounds like the OS issue I was telling you about but if it puts your mind at rest then go through with the refund and get a replacement

Finally a result Very Happy

Trading standards contacted pcworld - guess what - they made a mistake, they are responsible, yes I can have a refund but would I like a replacement Rolling Eyes

Why oh why do companies dig heels in and back down when court/authorities get involved - no wonder which rated them number 98 out of 100 companies for customer service Embarassed

I would rather wait 2 weeks for Apple to send me one than accept replacement from Pcworld after the hassle I have had with them Evil or Very Mad Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW
