No wifi problems here, since I've been using my N800 after purchasing it in January.

I don't know, but if all the forum member with no Wifi problems will be replying to this thread, then this thread is going to be LOOOONG.

But does anybody know when the next firmware release is coming and if this problem will be fixed?

That problem affects only a very minor number of wireless routers, and if I've understood the cause of it correctly it can even be argued that the problem is really with the router. If it were me I would simply ditch the router and get another one. They're cheap as cheese these days. Anyway, that's my personal opinion which you may choose to disagree with, of course.

Edit: As to dates.. it can be said with 100% certainty that nobody (outside of Nokia) can possibly know any release date, as this is simply something that Nokia doesn't disclose. Nothing special with that, it's common practice among vendors and in any case how it was for all the previous firmware updates, so I would be surprised if that suddenly changed.

Wasn't there a workaround for the issue? (And yes, the problem really is with the router, but still...)

Well... I have a good idea when it's coming Ton... but unfortunately I'm not the one to give that date out. Neither, for that matter, would any other poster here be unless it was Qgil or someone similar. You could always pose the question in maemo channels... but based on past experience I doubt there will be a date provided.

I know a date is much to ask (but i'm still asking), but is this going to be months, weeks, this year even? I don't really want to buy a new router because Nokia decided that of all the devices i have, their device needs to push the limits over the limit. :cool:

Unless Nokia can provide me with a list of certified AP's to work with the N800...
