I've just got hold of an Optimus 2X.
I rooted it and flashed CM7.1 RC1 on it with ROM Manager.
(Before I did this the wifi was working with the stock rom)
The wifi will enable but then instantly disable. I then flashed it with the latest nightly and it still didn't work.
Then I flashed the vork kernel and that didn't do anything either.
Is there anything else I can try? Mobile data seems to work ok.
Thanks
EDIT: I checked the advanced wifi settings and it says the Mac address is unavailable. Is that right?
Sorted now. Think it was because I restored setttings from 2.3.5 to a 2.3.4 build. Started again with the nightly and now it works fine.

I have recently rooted my N1, and used RA to flash the radio. When I install CM7, though, my WiFi says all networks are out of range and does not detect new ones. When I restore Froyo, it works again. CM7 is amazing and I want to fix this so I can use it. Any ideas?
Works fine on mine. Did you try wiping it?
Fixed
Thank you, Rusty!
A wipe got the wireless working.
Can some thrill users try this rom and tell me if they have any issues. I seem to be having difficulty with wifi. You need to have the v20p gb rom from att installed.

no problem on mine
use the 20120403 update and see if that works
also try wiping caches?
hrm on my phone it seems to drop out on wifi once the screen goes out even if I set it not to. And then when it comes back up wifi is broken until I reboot.
Mine dose this some times to it does it with data as well but I don't have to reboot to fix just turn on and off I think its a cm7 thing cuz I'm on v20c bb
I recently installed Helly Bean v10 ROM by Devil for Captivate as instructed in the post. After installation my wifi is not turning on. It just stays in the "turning wifi on" screen and does not proceed to show me the available wifi networks etc.
I then went ahead and re-wiped and re installed the ROM but the problem persists.
I did not have any such problems with wifi previously.
I was using the AOKP Milestone 6 ROM before installing Jelly Bean.
I tried to search the ROM post and found no such issues for other people.
Wifi "on" switch is dull
Also the wifi "on" button is dulled out when I try to switch it to on and doesn't turn the usual blue colour on trying to turn it on

After flashing, tick the wifi and reboot. Try that. Are you using cbalt's port of Helly Bean? That's the one I'm using right now and not encountering any of that.

I tried doing as you said. It didn't help.
Now trying to install that datadata kernel and will see.
Is there some setting on this new recovery that maybe hampering it? Like the Devil setting in recovery shows 2 wifi modes. Which one is better?
No improvement with flashing the kernel
I later tried the cbalt version as well, but even that has no improvements as regards the wifi connectivity. Same problem persists.
of me still Normal or Advanced Fix Permissions In Recovery
wifi issue
also try simply resetting the wireless router
simple fix
occurred to after flashing a different rom (slimbean) with still the same issue
worked like a charm

I've been through four roms and managed to try each one out successfully. I've had issues, but none too difficult to figure out. I tried this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867484
And am having the WiFi problem some of the other posters outlined. I can't post on the forum because I don't have enough posts. I'm coming from the lastest Helly Bean build (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1783064). I followed the instructions (as much as possible from my version of recovery). I wiped data 3 times, wiped cache, wiped dalvik cache, cleared init.d and NSTools then installed it. Wifi gets stuck on "turning on wifi" and remains there, even after restarting. I attempted to reinstall the rom 3 times, it had the same problem each time. Finally gave up and went back to Helly Bean.
Gonna check out a couple other JB roms in the meantime, but I was hoping that one would work since people attest to the speed!
UPDATE: Put RemICS JB v2.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625619) on it and it works like a charm now. Still wouldn't mind trying out LANIGHT, but did anyone ever figure out how to fix the wifi issue?
I have the same problem coming from the latest helly bean. I flashed LANIGHTv2 5 times already and still have problems with the wifi. I tried coming from X-bean, which the wifi works perfectly, but still no dice. I have not one clue on how to fix the wifi.

Spent very little time on LANIGHT but I was reading their thread earlier and they've done a different build with a different kernel. It seems the one persone with the wifi issue that stuck around the thread(or could post) had success with the new build using a different kernel.
Which kernel are you using? I flashed the devil kernel today and followed the 2nd set of instructions and flashed the Lanight v2 nodatadata version. Everything including wifi has worked for me.
I am having an issue with WIFI on my LANIGHT 6.0 NDD. Wifi works fine for me except when I use airplane mode. When using airplane mode wifi will not turn on unless I enable Bluetooth. This use to work correctly in 4.2 DD. Is this a known issue or is their a fix for this.
I am using the "stock" kernel which comes with 6.0 NDD.

No wifi issues here on the latest v6.5_DATADATA. Using the Devil kernel.
I have just flashed CyanogenMod for lb. The WiFi hangs on trying to turn on. I would appreciate any opinions is this a problem with the 201 kernel I came straight from 4.1.2 so I have no comparison as to whether my WiFi works on 4.3. I can't seem to find any threads/posts about this if there are any just redirect this. I have already tried reflashing the kernel. I can't access cwm to reflash CyanogenMod its supposed to be power&vol- but have tried all button combinations. I would like to sort this because everything else is working fine.

Wifi issue is a kernel problem. I think.. Some users are reporting the same problem with DoomKernel.
I suggest you went back to 4.1.2 > update to 4.3 to see if wifi has issues.
After this you can try CM for LB again.

Thanks I managed to fix it I had to go back to 4.1.2 root it then tried 4.3 WiFi worked OK so back to CM again WiFi is working fine now. I don't think CM flashed properly because there were a few bugs and CWM wasn't working. It showed up in my system files but wouldn't boot into it even adb reboot recovery just got a normal reboot

If I've helped hit thanks
I had this issue, from recovery I wiped data and cache, rebooted and it works like a dream. All I need now is a way to get MSC back.
This CM11 rom is fast, smooth and a joy to use. Puts all other roms I've tried to shame!
