    I tried killing the power to both my modem and wifi router, let it power back up and still have the same problem. I cannot connect to my router at all. I have not tried to connect to any other routers yet, Ill try that out as soon as Im close enough to one. My router works fine otherwise, I have my desktop connected via ethernet cable, and 2 other laptops connect with wifi no problem. I have not tried rebooting the router to wipe the settings yet, but Ill try that if worst comes to worst.
    Frustrating because whenever the 3G drops out or I dont have a signal, I have no connection to the outside world..dun dun dunnnnnnnnnn. scary right?

    Just as an update, maybe this will help some others having the same issue. I came across another thread on the droidforums about not being able to connect to the wifi.
    http://www.droidforums.net/forum/tech-issues-bug-reports-suggestions/51692-wifi-wont-connect-2.html

    Some have said that changing the channel on the router could help. I downloaded wifi analyzer and it looks like theres a couple other routers using the same channel mine is set. On my router the channel section is set to auto, but since Im in an apartment complex and everyone has a router, Ill try changing it and report back.

    Interesting...I started uninstalling a handful of apps because my phone has been chewing through my battery and always warm, and now my wifi works. Something much have been causing it not to connect.

    I had this issue: my android 2 would recognize my Linksys wireless router at home, but would not connect to the internet. I of course had no problems anywhere else. The phone would grab the wireless signal for a couple of seconds, but would just keep going back to 3G and never connect. I simply changed the security setting from WEP to WPA and it connected immediately. Apparently the phones dont like the WEP setting. This was of course the last thing I tried, so I turned a 2 second task in to an hour long debacle.
