Question

I pad mini

Jun 11, 2015 1:21PM PDT

How do I make my I pad mini remember my wifi password? I thought it would remember the password so I would not need to enter it every time I want to get on the web. I have 2 other I pads and they remember the password and I thought the i pad mini remembered the password as well, but the last 2 times I tried to get on the web I had to enter to password. This is not a problem for me, but my 7 year old grandson uses it as well and he does not remember the password and every time he wants to play a game someone must enter the password.
Thanks Swijo

On the ipad forget all networks. While this is on the web, the idea is to only have the one network you need and by forgetting all others and this one then connecting it you get a fresh start.
