I found out 3.0 does NOT work on any N type router.

if I knew that I would not have done the update.

I also work using wifi scanner guns from a large wallmart - Asds store
before update I could detect 98 wifi connections after update "0".

I also found out that 3GS has the same fault.

I wish i bought any other touch phone like the nokia N97
apple have screwd up with 3.0 and I hope folk read this and go else where for there phone I wish I did its a pile of crap without wifi.

3G is very slow at times and customer end care sucks.
there should have been a fix weeks ago.

3G pay and go O2 UK

My iphone 3G is running OS 3.1, beta 2 and works with every wifi device I have encountered including my brand new Airport extreme. I have not encountered a router that I have not been able to connect to and that has included a few "N" routers......

Perhaps you have not entered the password correctly ( if security was enabled)?
