WIFI access died after TB Update

We have two TB's. After the latest firmware update, NEITHER work on the WEP home network, but work on other open networks.

I've done all the usual stuff. Rebooted router, rebooted phones, checked all the settings again. Removed the security from the network....NADA.

WTF? anyone else have this problem?? and how you fix it?

Have you tried deleting the wifi network and re-adding it? After deleting the network, I'd go into your wifi settings restore to factory and then reboot and re-add.


Oh and you may have to go into your router's settings if you have it set up to allow only devices that you've added. With many rom installs I do, I notice that they all rename the phone to something different and if you have your wireless router set up to only recognize "Android phone" or whatever HTC named it, you'll have to go in and see if it was set up with a different name. "Settings>About Phone>Phone Identity" Which I don't think those really change...but worth a check. Good luck
 
I have a similar issue. When I get home my TB won't obtain an IP address from my router unless I reboot the router. This has never happened until I updated the phone, and doesnt' happen with any of my other devices on the network. I guess it could be coincidence, but it sure seems suspicious that this would start the day I updated.
