Use your iPad name on WiFi network

When your iPad connects to your WiFi networks, searching for its IP address may let you feel extremely annoyed. Because the address always changes while surfing on WiFi. But do you found out that you can use your iPad name on your network without IP numbers?

Just add a .local to the name that you gave your iPad on iTunes to login. For example, my iPad name on iTunes is goiPad, I don't use a cryptic IP address to reach your iPhone, just using goiPad.local.

To connect your iPad in the network via SSH and SFTP, just type the following command:

ssh -l root goiPad.local

Note: The name is case-sensitive.
