Has anybody else picked up wifi issues with Froyo?

Well I guess I can wait it out then I was planned on going back to 2.1 anyhow when the ota hit thanks for the update ggaabe
Good news everyone! A motorola agent responded to me on the motorola forums and answered my question

this issue is known and is being worked on. the leaked 2.2 that you upgraded to was not final and therefore not finished. you now have to research the way to get back to stock 2.1. when Verizon and Moto send out the 2.2 OTA very shortly the network will not recognize your version of the OS and therefore you will not be offered the official OTA.

it will be fixed and at least its just a software problem that can be fixed and not a hardware problem that is causing the problem.

Good news everyone! I have figured out how to fix this wifi issue! First, open 3G mobile hotspot (the real one), set up your password, etc... Then turn on the hotspot, and find a device that can connect to wifi (laptop, iPod touch, a phone with working wifi) and connect to your droids hotspot. Then try visiting a website. This will then bring you to the verizon page. Now turn off the hotspot, turn on wifi and it is now working perfectly. This worked for my phone and my dads, so it should work for you too.

I do have to give credit to my dad though, because he discovered it accidentally.
