Relax. But the Apple forums are now filled with people saying their WiFi is broken on 8.1. So there is reason for concern. And this sort of thing has been referred to as Wifigate since 3 years ago.
I'm just saying it isn't trolling.
nope. I have a time capsule (Mid 2013, 802.11ac) and my iPad gets 9 mb/s down. My 6+ and rMBP average 190 mb/s...

I just got my iPad 2 Air yesterday and I'm having issues with the wifi disconnecting. Mostly when I lock the iPad then come back to unlock it the wifi is connected but is not working. I have to toggle the wifi off and on to get it to work. I've reset network settings, hard reboot, and reset my router. I still have this issue and my iPhone 6's wifi is working fine.
I just turned off wifi networking (within privacy) and will see if that works.
My last resort is to restore as new.
Also, I see people here are also having an issue with their iPad Air 2: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6627481
This is exactly what I am facing! It's so frustrating, every time the Air 2 is in sleep mode for more than 5 mins the wifi still remains but no data passes so I have to toggle the switch on/off to get it working again. This happenw every time without fail on both my 2.4 and 5 Ghz connections! None of the mentioned fixes help and other devices work fine!

Yup. I did all my tests with only the device under test connected to the wifi network, and at the same location (right next to the router.)Hmm, strange. Other devices work fine?
Just to add to my details. I have a Linksys EA3500 and I've tried both the 2.4ghz and 5ghz frequencies and have the issue with both. I just restored the device as new. So I will see how this works as a new iPad.
Same problem as you guys, Linksys E4200v2 router with the latest firmware. 5GHz is disabled, tried the network settings restore on my iPad Air 2, but didn't change anything. I have to disconnect & connect every time the device is locked for more than 2 minutes. No problems with the iPhone 6 in the same network.I have a Linksys E4200v2 with the same problem. Can you share your result after the factory reset ?
Hmm I only have the issues at home where I have a Linksys EA4500. At my office where I have a DLink router I don't seem to have any issues.Same problem as you guys, Linksys E4200v2 router with the latest firmware. 5GHz is disabled, tried the network settings restore on my iPad Air 2, but didn't change anything.
