OK then it looks like I'm going to have to return this iPhone. My WiFi range seems to be getting even worse by the day.

I'm going to restore it and give it one more try before returning it.

One thing I've noticed is that I can see my AP, yet if the signal is only one "bar" (sometimes even two) the iPhone refuses to connect. But if I walk within 15' of the AP it connects, and I sometimes will stay connected just fine in the same area that it would connect from even after 10 attempts.

I wish I didn't have to return it since there are no at&t company stores around here locally, and the nearest Apple store--where I'd probably go to exchange it--is about 2.5 hours away (and in Vegas right on the strip--lots of traffic around there).

Thanks much for your input.
