ipad hangs up

[stephen alexander]

When using safari on the internet my Ipad (not ipad2) suddenly stops downloading. The little revolving circle keeps going around and then stops with no download.I have to switch off the ipad and then back on again and it works.
Does anyone know how to deal with this problem?
