Hey guys I've finally got my ipad mini and i love it!

I have jailbreaked it and did a wifi hack to skip the wifi signal limitation and now the signal is just as good as my samsung note 2 and laptop.

What is worrying is that i needed to jailbreak and hack my ipad to get an ACCEPTABLE signal. Before i could hardly detect my router. Now the signal increased by 80%. That makes me wonder if i should get an ipad 5 or not when it releases if I can't jailbreak it.

Is this normal for ipads?

Nope exchange it I have no issues besides waiting for the list but even my laptop does that lol

I would, but with the jailbreak is just as good or better than my other devices im not sure if it really is faulty or not.

Maybe It's probably just like this but most people don't notice? :confused:
 
I think my Mini came with IOS 6.0.2 and I had spotty wifi issues. I was going to take it back, but IOS 6.1 came out right before my return period ended and it seems to have fixed the issues.

So, if your mini wasn't on 6.1 before the jailbreak, maybe that's a factor.
