Some things to try when webpages will not load on your iPad, in no particular order:
1) Swipe out of ALL your running apps. Shut the iPad down. Wait 20 seconds. Start it back up again. This is what we call the iPad Reboot Dance
2) Turn wi-fi off. Wait 20 seconds. Turn it back on again.
3) Your subscription to the network may have expired. Surf to a webpage you’ve never visited before [hamsandwichtees.com, for example]. That should trigger the login page.
4) Try a different web browser – you have three [Safari, Chrome, Firefox].

When you are using the Web for research, it is often easier and faster to use a desktop machine, with your Gsuite account and the Keep extension installed in your browser. Note that the process detailed below does NOT work on a device [tablet or phone].
When it comes to fast, informal online research, the Google Keep Chrome extension could be the ticket. Just save a link—along with a label and note—then export your Keep notes to Google Docs.
Three Google tools—Chrome, Google Keep and Google Docs—streamline the web research process. The Google Keep Chrome extension, specifically, lets you save, annotate and categorize web links, then export a selected set of saved Google Keep notes to a Google Doc.
The Keep extension eliminates the need to select a site’s URL, copy it, paste it into a document, add a note, then return to browse additional search results.
To streamline the whole process, make sure you have Chrome installed and are signed in with your Google account. The steps below cover how to install the Keep extension (a one-time process) as well as the routine research sequence.
Web research: Search, review, annotate, label and save
As you search and browse the web, anytime you want to save a web link, select the Keep extension. This automatically captures the URL for the page, creates a Keep note with the link, and places the cursor in the Keep Note field. Add any relevant text in the note (e.g., why this link is relevant, important items about the page or any commentary on the contents). Optionally, you may add a title to your note.
Select the Keep extension to create a note with the link to the web page. Optionally, you may add text, labels, and a note title.
You can use labels to categorize Keep notes. Select the label icon, then either type text to create a new label or select a previously added label from the list that displays. You may apply more than one label to a Keep note (e.g., for printer research, I might apply not only a “printers” label, but also an “all-in-one” label for devices with a scanner).
On every web page you want to save, repeat the process: Select the Keep icon and add text and labels.
Go to keep.google.com to review your saved links and notes. Select from the list of labels (displayed on the left) to filter your Keep notes and only display those with the selected label.
At keep.google.com on the web, select a label to show only notes with that label.
You can export a set of Keep notes into a single Google Doc.
There are several ways to filter and select notes. –> Select a label (along the left) to display all notes with that label. -> Press Ctrl+A to select all displayed notes. -> Or, move the cursor over a note, then click near the circle with a check mark in it (in the upper-left section of each note) to select or deselect it.
Once you have selected the set of Keep notes to export, select the More menu (the three-vertical dot menu in the upper right) and choose Copy To Google Docs .
Choose Open Doc (in the lower left) to display the Google Doc created from your selected Keep notes.
At this point, your Google Doc contains the links, notes and titles from your selected Google Keep notes. Now you can edit your Google Doc as needed.
After you have chosen notes to export, select the More menu (three vertical dots in the upper right), then Copy To Google Docs.Select Open Doc to access the Google Doc created from your selected Keep notes.The resulting Google Doc includes complete URL details and links from the saved Keep notes, along with any text and titles you added.
