We have connected our wireless ADSL+ router with the ISP provided one and Is working fine with other devices except the i-pad..it accepted the same wifi user name and password as we used to have back there in India
The router configuration page On 192.168.1.1 directs to the details of swisscom connection and router
I am not very much into computers networking so its Lil bit difficult for me to understand all
Hope I could find some help here

I'm not sure if it has anything to do with your issue but if you are chaining routers in this way its usually better to make sure they are both configured with management, IP's in the same subnet (ip range), then turn the DHCP server off on one of the routers. Then Connect the ISP router to one of the LAN ports (not the WAN port), on your other router. This effectively turns the 2nd router in to a switch/access point rather than an internet gateway.

Why? Double NAT. The routers perform network address translation between the wan & lan ports. There is no need to do this on your 2nd router and it can cause issues like this if you do. It could be that the IPAD is truing to use UPNPnat.

I'm not sure how all of that would paly out but i'd recommend trying what I said.
