That appears to have worked. (Odd, I never had to do that before.)
This reply is going through the router.
It could be that *your* modem and/or router doesn't need power cycling,
in general, but that it randomly goofed and needed it this time.
You can test that. Unplug its data leads, leave it powered up. Some
time later, repatch it, and see if things just work.
By "repatch", you mean reconnect, right?
Next time I check for ipad OS patches/upgrades, I'll try what you
suggest. That's done monthly.
It may also depend on things like; do you leave your modem always
powered?
Some people leave everything off, and the individual lengths of time it
takes for their modems and routers to boot up means that things always
work for them, or randomly don't work.
The tower is powered down nightly.
The router is powered up only when I need it, which seems to be once a
month. (My other uses of the ipad do not need the internet.)
The modem is an Arris phone modem, so it's always on (for the land-line
phone).
Thank-you, Tim.
Bill.
