iPad 2 ios 9.3.5 Slow Wifi Speed?
So I noticed that my iPad 2 is getting super slow wifi speed? I am running IOS 9.3.5. Max speed is 20 mbps on Speedtest. I saw this discussion a long time ago: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Or...
- Jul 08, 2017I just tested our iPad2 on 9.3.5. I could not get above 20mbps on it anywhere in the house. Same test with iPhone gives 60+
In my opinion, the iPad2 is just slow compared to newer tech. Not just the radio. It the processor is gasping for breath at most modest tasks.
Ipad2 was released 6 years ago and the hardware used to design it is older still. Happily, Apple have invested heavily in their microelectronics side and their hardware has improved greatly.
will retire our iPad2 this year for the new iPad Pro.
