I think the evil AT&T people know that I don't like having to pay that $30 a month for internet, so they have gremlins in my phone to disable the wifi so that I will have to use the internet!

and if I get on Edge for the internet, then I don't receive calls. ppphhhhhtt!

I get this too... My wifes v1 works everwhere in our house, but my 3g only works when I'm close to the router... Both on 3.0. Tried resetting network settings... This sucks!!!

Do you have "Ask To Join Networks" turned on. Grabbing at straws here. Don't know why one would work and not the other.

To be serious and honest, I'd tried a restore through iTunes.

If your suffering from issues connecting to wifi and simple solutions don't work- then the restore is for you.

Set up as new phone then sync all you data afterwards.

restoring now. will see what happens. it has done this before a few weeks ago, and a restore worked. just seems silly to have to do this.

I did a restore twice, once from backup once as a new phone. No dice. I really think it's the 3.0 OS (but only on 3g)... Apple store??

It could be the system administrator has limited the number of users to keep performance acceptable.
