CM7 RC2 on D1 Wireless Stopped Working

[mascasa]

Rom was working pretty well for 4 days until last night. The wireless stopped working. It says my networks are out of range, and I cannot search for new wireless networks. It used to work just fine. Wireless Tether still works, so I know the hardware is good. I am running CM7 RC2 on a D1 with SetCPU.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Try a different kernel one of chevy's GB kernels should do the trick.

Don't update busybox, I can't obtain an IP from any network with Busybox 1.18.3 and only some work with 1.17.1. Try reflashing the rom without wiping cache or data, that should fix it.

New kernel fixed it. Thanks!

Next time this happens, just forget all the remembered networks and then wifi will scan and connect properly again.

First off in my situation I'm referring to Wi-Fi only, not just wireless in general, because that was the only thing that affected my phone.

This has happened to me before when I tried out a new kernal. I could not scan for new networks and checking the checkbox to turn on WiFi would result in no change from the word "DISCONNECTED" so I would have said it's a kernal thing in my case. I have not had it happen seemingly randomly as the original poster.

I have reflashed my older kernal to get WiFi working.

Next time this happens, just forget all the remembered networks and then wifi will scan and connect properly again.

@ mightybrick , thanks for the tip, I will have to try that next time it happens to me.
