My Wi-Fi connection is slow or drops frequently.
First, restart your Wi-Fi router and your iPad Air. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi, tap the 'i' next to your network, and select 'Forget This Network', then try reconnecting. Ensure you are within range of your Wi-Fi router. If issues persist, check your router's firmware and internet service status.
My 5G cellular data isn't working.
Check if cellular data is enabled in Settings > Cellular Data. Ensure your cellular plan supports 5G and that you are in an area with 5G coverage. Try toggling Airplane Mode on and off. If issues continue, contact your cellular provider to verify your account and plan status.
Apps are crashing or performing slowly.
Close any unnecessary apps running in the background by swiping up from the bottom of the screen and swiping app previews away.
