For the past 12 hours I have been unable to use my wifi connection. It sees all wifi on my block. It connects to my wifi but for the life of me it will not let me surf or acces mail. Market is a no go as well. The signal in lower right corner stays grey.

I can connect to my 3g no problem. I have turned off my unit, reset my wifi but no dice. I am on 3.1 update. Got my xoom 1 week after release.
 
Tried volume up and power on xoom? Has happened a couple times to me and that is all I had to do.
 
I did this last nite after posting this thread. Factory reset (I think), and it changed nothing. As I try different things, I am startng to believe it is the router. I can connect to 3g, wifi tether, juust cannot connect to my home wifi.

It was working fine, then all of a sudden, not usable. THe connection shows great strength, but the icon for wifi stays grey/white. Never goes to blue.
 
I would take your Xoom to a free wifi location such as a public library and test it there.
 
Check the channels your router is set for. Xoom supports 802.11N/5Ghz, but only some channels.
 
Thanks for all the input. It is indeed my network that is faulting. Woke up this morning to no Wifi connectivity on anything in my network. Xoom, PS3, Mac, 3 Pc's...
 
Could be the network cable from the router to your modem (cable, dsl, etc.) also. Maybe replace it. You can also turn your router off, then on. If that doesn't work, do a hard reset and reconfigure it. All else, replace the router.
