    Been trying to get my ipad to connect to my hotspot on my puter.   :pullinghair:  Did everything I could find on google, no luck.  Any ideas.   :notsure:  I reset the ipad, reset my puter, did a hard reboot.

Try cycling your hotspot, looks like you are hung up on the WPA password.

1.
Have you tried connecting with another device to  eliminate the hot spot .

2.   Some hotspots are sensitive to the ios version the ipad is running , if the ios is to far back it might not allow it .

3.
Open wifi connections in ipad  , next to you hotspot click the (i) and forget the network .
Then coldstart the ipad and try again.

4.  Last resort !!!!!! Clear all network connections ( you will lose all wifis you hook up to and will need to put passwords back in to access them !!!!!  Last resort....... 

Settings -general- reset network connections    Ipad will restart .

Try and connect again....

Just stuff ive had to do over the years ......

Good luck

Thank you @lulurocks(Ken)  I will run all that stuff tomorrow.

 After trying everything, a friend recommended putting the i pad in airplane mode, then out of airplane mode, and trying again. BAM, it worked.   :rebelflag"

I probably would of suggested that you tell the ipad to forget the network and then try again.  That typically works for me.  Glad you figured it out! 
Drive it like you stole it . . . And they're CHASING you!
