"Unable to Scan for Networks"

I turned my Pocketbook IQ on after a few months. I turned the wifi on and used Facebook, then I checked and saw there was a firmware update. So I updated the firmware and now I can't connect to my wifi at all. It keeps saying "unable to scan for networks". I tried turning it on and off but I am still having the same problem.

Suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks!

Edit- Wanted to add that if I do finally manage to "add Wi-fi network", i try to manually put my wifi information in and it says "unable to save".

Update

I re-installed the previous firmware 2.0.6 and the wifi works perfectly fine. So I am going to assume this is a firmware issue. I see there are many bugs reported, I wish I would of came here first before updating!

Known bug, factory reset after upgrade should help...

troll is correct. do a factory reset and it'll work. BUT wifi is still glichy.
Stay with 2.06 and pick up Laucncher Pro. No problems at all since last Xmas.

I did install the new update and then did a factory reset. That worked too but ever now and again my WiFi will randomly disconnect. But for the most part it works well.
