Have you tried remounting the antenna? Perhaps a faulty connection inside the device is leading to dropped connections.

I did not try it but I will.

Do you mean reconnect the small terminal (connector)?

Yes, try the small antenna connector.

I have checked the connector. The connection is good.

I got the antenna from China. Maybe the quality of it is not the best in the World. Can it be the problem?

by

I have ordered a new antenna from iFixit and put it into the iPad. That is mean I have changed the part from china to part from ifixit. Just a note: the numbers on parts was the same.

Now the iPad is working.
