I've just had the same problem. I can't understand how that page being inaccessible completely kills wifi...??!!? How does that make any technical sense whatsoever?
I understand the reasoning, but for it to totally wipe out Wifi?

I just don't understand how it completely destroys wifi when inaccessible. Windows 7 does a similar thing, but when the page is inaccessible, it doesn't completely kill the internet connection.
Basically, if Apples servers dissapear... Am I to believe that wifi becomes a useless feature on my iDevice, or am I missing a piece of the puzzle?
From http://arstechnica.com/apple/2012/08/apple-lifts-curtain-on-... :
> Apple has sold 46.5 million iPod touch units in the US between the device's introduction in 2007 and the second quarter of 2012. (That's in addition to the nearly 86 million iPhones and 34 million iPads sold during that time.)
iPod Touches alone are 28% of total iOS sales. If wifi-only iPads make up 60% of iPad sales (and I think they're probably higher), then that's 40%. Consider also that the turnover rate on phones is probably higher than the more focused devices.
