Winpwn to 2.0.1, WIFI ISSUES

[Playa4Life352]

After I winpwned to 2.0.1, my wifi will work until i type in the password for the network, then it wil immediately stop working (won't display ANY networks and will not connect to the original one I inputted the password for), tried to reset all settings and even re pwned the phone, no luck. any ideas???

[HOPPERSAN]

same issue

tried resetting all setting still not luck from looking around it seems alot of people are having this issue but i have not found a fix

Well after a little more research, I tried to connect to wifi at my gf's house, and it will recognize to wifi connects (a little slower than usual to display them), and then once I enter a password it will connect then disconnect immediately... I just winpwned my gf's iPhone with the same ipsw's and everything was ok!!



** talking about 2G phones here!! **

** bump **

Has anyone came across this problem yet and overcame it?

My error with the WiFi is that it shows I am connected to the network but it doesn't show the WiFi icon at the top - only shows the EDGE icon.

Any suggestions?

mine shows me connected to wifi but its not if i turn of edge i can not connect to safari

For me i used pwnage tool... afterward i could see access points but when going to connect, after typing in a password, would immediately fail. The solution that worked for me and maybe help with you guys is i had to go into settings, and turn 'ask to join wireless' off, on, and back off again.

After this i re-enabled wi-fi and turned ask to join back on. Ever since this i've had no troubles with wireless.

[HOPPERSAN]

tried that thanks for the tip still no luck

I'm having the same exact problem. I tried the suggestion above and no luck.

My problem is the same. It asks to join the Wi-Fi connection and i put in the password and it seems okay. I then get the Wi-Fi bar on the top so it looks like it's working, but when I open Safari (or anything else that tries to use to access the internet), the Wi-Fi logo will change to the EDGE icon, and will use the EDGE connection. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

edit: Also, this is the first gen iPhone, not the 3G

[HOPPERSAN]

1gen

Did you check the "don't wipe" box when using winpwn? Also, try resetting your network.

That's the same exact problem I've been having, sorry if I wasn't as clear per prior posts. I haven't tried the solution that twinkikabuki had work for him, but I will tomorrow and let everyone know how it goes

No I didn't check the "no wipe" and also I never restore a backup through iTunes.

[HOPPERSAN]

no i did not check the don't wipe button

No I didn't select the "Don't Wipe" box. I followed the directions step by step.

[Playa4Life352]

Does ANYONE have any sort of solution or tips for this common problem???

[rabanjr]

i am having same problem. 3G 16Gb

Really? I wasn't aware that this was a 3G problem also.

It's not a problem with the 3G. The wifi is cutting off on me with 2nd gen 3g iphone.

I saw that most were stating that they had 1st gen 2g iphones. I wanted to show that it is not only 1st gen 2g models.
