Mine is a iPad 2 32gb Wifi Black, also have issue with the location service, where when i open the map it won't detect my current location. I power it off, switch it on again, connect to my wifi ap at home, then it works.. it now able to detect my current location, same goes when I use my Nokia N8 as a hotspot.

My current iOS version is still 4.3.1 tongue.gif lazy to update to 4.3.3..

Yeap is on.. check and did everything I could.

I see a lot of people manage to get it fix after a reset. But some says it comes back after few days or a week. Not sure whats the problem.. hope Apple will fix this in the next update

Mine only got problem on the first boot of my iPad, after that 1 restart it works.. I now have my iPad 2 for nearly 2 weeks now. The problem did not come back smile.gif

I do read in some forum that someone said similar thing like you do. Here is the funny thing .. I had my friend's IPad 2 with me which is on 4.3.1 and it work on my home wifi whereas my 4.3.3 ipad 2 don't work. After I've updated it to 4.3.3 it is not working like mine..

@gogo2

I do appreciate if you can just keep your 2cents to yourself. I have my reason for my purchase and I don't need your comment on that. I'm here to understand what is the issue if you don't have anything better to contribute do take your comments elsewhere  smile.gif Thanks.

That narrow down the possibility then that your unit might be faulty.
