I have an iPad Air 2. It was working perfectly yesterday. Now it won't open some websites including SoSH and reddit. It will open sites likes espn and cnn but safari says it server has stopped responding on pages like reddit.

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Weird. I'd be interested to know if you can load those pages using the Chrome browser (available for free download in App store).

You might also try clearing your browser cache and trying again.

I echo @djbayko suggestion.. Download one of the many browsers from the app store (chrome, opera etc) and see if the issue persists. Will help us try and narrow down a solution

First thing I would do Is "Forget the network" on your ipad and then turn off your Ipad (hold down the home and power button until it cycles). After the ipad has been turned off "power cycle" your modem and router. (which means unplug both for about 30 seconds and then plug them back in) once both are back online turn your ipad back on and reconnect to the your wifi (you will need to retype the password in)

Then just reset your router and cable modem if you have one. It's a DNS issue.
