I tried absolutely everything! No success. It was not worth any more of my time to spend with it.
I took my iPhone 3G to an Apple Store. Two Genius types could not even fix it!

I gave up and gave in after 2+ years, I replaced it with an iPhone 4. All systems work great.

Solution: Add money!

lol. There plan worked.

My husband and I are having the same problem. I have a 3G and he has a 3GS. Worked great for about a year on mine and about a week on his and started messing up. It will say it's connected but no wifi symbol. Called Apple and talked to tech for over an hour and he couldn't figure anything out. If Apple doest get this fixed I WILL go with another phone!
