HTC Wildfire - Unable to connect to wifi

Bit of an odd one....

HTC Wildfire on Orange, now running Froyo.

Wireless base station is an apple airport extreme (dual band version)

Up until I went to Froyo, all was well, even after Froyo all seemed ok for a couple of days, but now, I'm totally unable to connect to my Wifi.

I have tried all the usual stuff, changing wifi channels, deleting the details from my phone and re-entering them a hundred times, restarting the airport extreme... but nothing seems to work.

I'm a little unsure what might be causing this, as other 2.4ghz wifi devices are connecting to the airport just fine.

In the wifi screen on the phone it just infinitely cycles *Scanning, Connecting, Disconnected*

Ideas?

Odd...my Wildfire's wifi is fine post Froyo update.

These forums might be able to help?

Thanks for the links, posted in the support and troubleshooting section of the wildfire forum.

Guy at work has the same issue with a different router to me... apparently the baseband commands on the wildfire were changed as part of the froyo upgrade?

I had this problem with my desire once or twice, i turned off WiFi, then turned it back on again and it worked.
