If you were to disable the band pref, and let the iPad connect (a small test environment) does it connect to channel A or no?

An issue that I have noticed in the past is if in your VNS > WLAN > Privacy if the WPA.2 is not set to AES only, iDevices have had an issue connecting. If you are running WPA.1 I have had to change it to auto.
Lastly, I would also check to see if you have severe channel overlap as iDevices do not work well with that.
Hope all of our info helps you get to a resolution. Let us know 🙂
