No WIFI After 2.0.1 Updates

First, after the 2.0.1 update installed, my itunes would not recognize my iphone so I restored it to original settings. Then, 2.0.1 was successfully installed and itunes identified my phone but my WIFI is now greyed out and not working. Please advise!

To clarify: It reads "No Wi-Fi" in the Wi-Fi tab of the settings menu. And yes, I'm in an area where I use to receive at least 5 wifi signals.

Yes, was hoping this update would solve my problems... as far as the iphone bricking on App install so far so good, but now I've lost wifi as well. Wife's phone, 2.0, full bars, mine, 2.01, can connect even though I'm sitting in the room next to the access point. Have tried turning off and on, resetting, resetting network connections, etc. Still no luck.

Oddly, one of the times when I reset network settings the wifi was grayed out as others described, but another reset fixed this, but still won't allow me to connect.

I'm having the same problem.
Which did you folks install first, the firmware update or the iTunes update? I called Rogers tech support today and he told me that I have to delete iTunes and then reinstall. The problem occurs, he claimed, when you install one before the other...I just can't remember which is supposed to be first. (I called in the car this morning.)

I'll let you know how I make out.

Hey,

Does the iPhone have a Wi-Fi address listed in Settings> General> About?

If it does not this article will provide options for resolving the issue.

If the article does not resolve the issue, the iPhone may need hardware repair. Make a reservation to have a Mac Genius take a look at it or call AppleCare.
