Help - wifi no longer works on iPhone.

    I got an iPhone about 2 months ago that I jailbroke with blackra1n. It's one of the iPhones that has to be re-jailbroken if it powers off. I've had to do this once or twice before with no problems afterwards.

    However, this time, today, after I re-jailbroke my iPhone it won't connect with any wireless network. It won't even search for available networks - it says none are available.

    I have not upgraded to 3.1.3 and the wireless still works on my laptop and the PC downstairs so I'm fairly sure it's not a problem with the wireless network.

    Does anyone have any idea what the problem is or how to fix it?

    Thanks!

    Try to Reset Network setting and enter the wep key again, if not fix then install Pushfix, i am not allowed to say more, google it.

    I've had Wifi issues also before. I find that switch off the iPhone and back on sometimes helps.

    The other option is to go into Settings, Reset, then select Reset Network settings. This will wipe out your 3G settings and your VPN settings and will reboot the phone.

    Upon reboot, it might try to connect to the wireless straight away. If so, just enter your password. If it doesn't, switch the Wifi off then back on, on the iPhone. If it doesn't work after that. Switch the wireless off on the iPHone again, then power off the iPhone, turn it back on and try connecting again.

    I'm 99.9% sure you will have to enter your wireless password again but it should show you your wireless network when you try to connect again.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks a million for the help.

    I tried everything you said, but unfortunately the iPhone still won't detect any wireless networks at all.
