Hi all.

I've recently re-done my home network with the addition of an old router (linksys WRT120N) I had in storage and seem to be having issues with our iPad2 where it randomly disconnects from our wireless networks and forgets the settings (ssid and WPA key).

This is happeing in standby and during use where my daughter is watching a video in Plex and it disconnects during playback.

What I've tried:
Changes APN settings.
Channel Width was originally set to "Auto" 40/20MHz, I've now set this to 20MHz as I've read on the Apple support forums that this will hep.
Used Wifi Analyzer on my Nexus 4 to get the best channel in my area. (My connection is the Linksys)

My iPhone 4 and everything else seems to be able to connect fine, It's just my iPad 2 that is exhibiting this issue. Our iPad 2 was working fine on our old ADSL modem (Some Sky Sagem thing) but we're no longer using Sky as our broadband provider.

Any ideas on what else I could try to get this sorted? my iPad 3 is a GSM 3g 16GB if that helps.

Thanks!
