Iphone supports all type of WIFI encryption, however, since the 2.2 update, the WEP encryption seems a little buggy. A genius told me this was a known issue, and as WEP isnt very secure, i should change my encryption to WEP2, that seems to work fine now

i should change my encryption to WEP2

I spent literally an hour trying to get my new iPhone purchased 7/31/09 to join the wireless network at home. I finally reset the router with the reset button on back and set Wireless Security to the following:
WEP
Encryption: 40/64 Bit
Created a Pass Phrase
Generated the Key.

I entered the generated key in my iPhone when asked for it worked the first time.

Evidently iPhones do not like WEP 128 bit encryption which is the setting I had before.

Hope this helps someone to avoid the frustration I experienced.
