iPad 2 – Cannot Connect to WPA2-PSK AES Encrypted Wi-Fi Network?

Posted on October 6, 2020 By blog_786 No Comments on iPad 2 – Cannot Connect to WPA2-PSK AES Encrypted Wi-Fi Network?

I recently ran into an iPad 2 issue I hadn’t encountered before: not being able to connect to a wireless network! I’ve had an iPad 2 since its first release and haven’t had a single issue yet! This is the best gadget I have ever owned.

Anyway, I set up a new wireless network in my home and I tried to connect but got the message:

Unable to connect to network [network name]

I made sure my iPad 2 is running the latest version of iOS, now it’s 9.x. I went ahead and also tested connecting to a new wireless network using a laptop and it worked fine. So there were definitely no problems with the router.

iPad 2 – Cannot Connect to WPA2-PSK AES Encrypted Wi-Fi Network?

My first thought was the iPad 2 can’t connect because I have configured WPA2-PSK security with AES encryption. I went ahead and quickly changed the security of my wireless router to WPA with TKIP and iPad 2 connected !! It was great, but I was still surprised that iPad 2 does not support WPA2.

After doing a little research, I found that the iPad 2 does support WPA2 and TKIP / AES encryption. So I changed the security of the wireless router again, but still couldn’t connect! It’s a shame, to put it mildly!

After a while, I decided to try resetting all settings. In the end I found an option to only reset the network settings.

After resetting network settings, I was able to connect my iPad 2 to the WPA2-PSK AES network! Not sure why I had to reset the settings, but for some reason it helped.

You can do this on your iPad 2 by first going to Settings and then clicking General.

Go ahead and tap the “Reset Network Settings” option and you should be fine! Turn Wi-Fi back on and try connecting to the problem wireless network.

Hope you can connect now without any problem. If you have any problems, please leave a comment here and I will try to help! Enjoy!
