I upgraded to ios 6 yesterday on my ipad 2. Immediately after the ipad would not detect ANY wifi networks. Nothing was "greyed out"--there was simply nothing being detected. Clearly it's a software issue, as there was no hardware damage in the 10 minutes it took to update the ipad through itunes.


I've tried everything: reset network setting, turning ipad on/off (not sleep), reset safari, cleared all data, changed security/channels on wifi router, etc... NOTHING fixes this software problem. So, until Apple gets around to rolling out a software update, I expect I will have no wifi on my ipad.
