It’s clear to me that OS has a wifi problem. on my iphone 3g never jailbreaked, everithing is OK, so what?? There’s is just a symptomatic issue, on the use of the app “wifi finder”, that doesn’t work anymore with 3.0. We can remark also that’s this app was discovering more wifi networks than the pref system panel of the OS, a bit the same kind of thing on Leopard on Mac with some widgets discovering more networks then the system itself.
So what is Apple doing with the wifi??

I made a mistake: the name of the app wa “wifinder” it is now “wifi checker”. All reviews on the app store report the same problem of not working anymore with 3.0. Just crash when discovering begins in the app.

OS 3.0 has been great for me—it fixed my wi-fi probs.  I no longer get dropped connections and everything works faster.

you should not have to seek repairs for what is clearly a software issue. I had 3.0 and it would connect to a wifi source but would not be able to surf the web, connect to app store, etc.

I downgraded to the 2.2.1 IPSW and everything works just fine…

This is Apple’s problem with software, not hardware

I’ve been using my 1st generation of Iphone for almost 2 years without any issue with wifi or bluetooth until few weeks ago (after upgrade to 3.0 OS). Since then my Iphone could not see any wifi network at all. Apple tech support have tried to troubleshoot but no luck. They asking for deposit $400 to get the replacement (same generation + refurbished), after they get my old phone, they will credit back and charge me $29. This is unfair. This is Apple 3.0 OS bug that killed my iphone wifi. This is not user error. Apple should send me a replacement without charging me or they need to fix the OS ASAP that can bring my wifi back (which I don’t think so since my wifi already dead).

@muneeb:
I had this same issue
Put your iphone in DFU mode (simply google for DFU mode)
and then restore in iTunes, it will fix it

After much researching i found that to fix the wifi is to reset network settings an if that fails either upgrade or downgrade the firmware.by what i am seeing is that apple software is becoming more unreliable every time a new release is made an i dont think its fair for apple to charge almost the same amount as buying a new device if you want your system repaired an warranties wether expired or not if there are hardware issues they should be responsible in replacing.

I keep searching for a reason that the new IPOD Touch
with Bluetooth has no volume control when paired to my A2DP compliant headphones. The head phones do not have a volume control due to size so the sound almost explodes your ears. Apple couldn’t give me an snswer.
