Can't connect to a secured network after update?

I did a quick search on this but couldn't seem to find anyone with a similar issue. My apologies if it's been discussed before.

Anyway, I updated to FroYo yesterday using the update.zip, and everything worked flawlessly, but for some reason, I cannot connect to my secure home network over Wi-Fi anymore. I can connect to any open, unsecured networks just fine, but my home network just constantly loops from connecting to obtaining IP address to disconnecting and then trying again. I reset the router and the password is correct.

Is anyone else having an issue with their Wi-Fi? Any suggestions?

Nope - mine connects ok to my secured home network.

Try "Forgetting" the network and then re-connecting and re-entering the password. The passwaor hash mar have gone wonky during the update.

Hope this helps.

After doing some research, it appears that FroYo is having difficulty connecting to WEP-encrypted networks on more than just the Incredible, so maybe that's the issue. I can change my security settings to troubleshoot after I get home tonight, but can anyone currently using WEP confirm that their Incredible is able to connect to their home network?

I haven't WEP't since Junior High... And I'm telling you that guy is still wrong for her! ;)

Mine's WPA, Sorry. In 2.1 I noticed similar issues with WPA2 AES, But I havent had the oppertunity to test that either yet.
