why is my wifi greyed out

Why is my wifi greyed out, and how do I get it back. I've tried contacting Apple, but that's a joke. There some rubbish on YouTube about using a hair drier. I'm on the verge of giving up and going android, please help.

iPod touch, iOS 5.1.1

See:

iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.

Also heating sometimes works. See:

Why can't I select my wifi settings?

A trick that works frequently with iPhones:

Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON

Power down and wait 5-10 minutes

Power up

Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF

If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
