Has anyone else experienced this? The update downloaded and installed just fine. All apps seem to run fine, just cannot connect to my wifi network. In fact it doesn't seem to even see any networks.
I did not have my device activated for a Verizon Data Plan, and when I try and go through the "Activate Device" process that fails as well.
Thanks

Which update did you apply, was it an OTA update or one you found someplace else either on XDA or grabbed from the web?
As far as I know the only working update for a 3g Xoom is going out OTA to testers, and no one has grabbed a link for the zip install, so what did you install?

I installed the OTA using the trick to stop Google Framework Services and force the update check.
Before I have you go and do a whole bunch of crazy stuff, let me ask the simple question...have you rebooted your tablet and tried WiFi again?
Also, just so I understand the exact problem, is it that WiFi won't turn on, or is it that it does turn on but just doesn't find any WiFi networks?
Seems okay here. Unrooted and relocked and manually applied updates one by one.

It's that it doesn't find any networks.
EDIT: works now, for some reason after the update wifi was set to 5GHz only and couldn't find any networks. Setting it to Auto resolves the issue. Strangely also the Verizon 3g works now as well.
Thanks for the responses.
wifi not working after Jelly Bean update
My Xoom tablet (Wi-Fi only) just got an OTA update to Jelly Bean.
The Wi-Fi network has stopped working. The network is found and shows as "saved". If I tell the tablet to forget the connection, it will re-save it but it will not process the "connect" command. I am trying to connect to an open hotel network while on business travel. I was connected to this network during the upgrade but now I can't reconnect. I've rebooted and it doesn't do anything different.
Also, when the tablet boots, it still displays the ICS splash screens but after it boots, it has all the new Jelly Bean features.
I am currently unable to use the tablet at all for networking since it does not have any cellular capability.
What now????
=========
UPDATE: After sitting with Wi-Fi turned off and sleeping for about 20 minutes, the Wi-Fi now is working. I didn't touch anything. Previously, it wouldn't load the network and I rebooted it at least 4 times. Weird. but now it's working so I'm happy...
Guys,
I'm not able to access internet through my wifi network since 3 days after the lollipop update .. The wifi network is working fine as others are able to connect and access internet but for only me it's not working.
I tried soft resetting the phone by holding the power and volume down key for 10 secs and also cleared the cache partition but to no avail.
Someone please help me out to sort out this problem as I really need internet to connect to essential services on my mobile. Thanks in advance, appreciate your help!
Are you running a custom ROM or kernel?
I got the update notification and downloaded the update.
So you're running a stock ROM and kernel? Are you able to access your data network over 3g?
I'm not sure about these terms but I just got the official update. Yes, I'm able to access internet on mobile data.
Sounds to be like something went wrong during the update process.
I have a custom ROM on my phone and, if I use the wrong kernel with my custom ROM, wifi does not work.
No.. The weird thing is I took it to get it checked at a mobile shop. When he connected to his Wi-Fi it was able to access the internet. It's not working only for my Wi-Fi network it seems. He was saying it has to be formatted but I don't want to lose my data ?
Guys, as a last resort I have finally formatted my mobile and backed up settings. Now, it's not even defecting my Wi-Fi network. And as said earlier, I'm able to connect and access internet on my other devices. This is really confusing I'm not able to figure out what's wrong. Many of my friends who have Moto G are also facing this same problem. I hope there's an upcoming update from Motorola to fix this issue asap. ?
Change channel
Change your wifi channel from your routrer settings page to under 12 wifi will work . Use channels 1-11 for lollipop roms .

I faced same issue few days ago..
Possible solution (try all one by one)
Switch encryption mode in wifi router (TKIP <=> AES)
Change name of wifi (Don't use space)
Change security type (WEP <=> WPA <=> WPA2)
After each step restart router and check if you can still connect.
Worked for me
Also check channel as mentioned by @ankushv ... AFAIK channel between 1-11 is must for most android phones
Thanks for your reply. When I checked my phone later sometime it showed my Wi-Fi network and I immediately connected it. But it works sometimes and doesn't at other. I hope google engineers are aware of this Wi-Fi issue and going to release a patch update soon.

Guys,
Just one quick question. Is the Wi-Fi connecting issue fixed in the new Android 5.1 lollipop update?
I have Lollipop 5.02 on my xt1032 and I have no problem connecting to and searching for networks.
I've ran into a very odd problem on a Nexus 5 I picked up off CL today. It appeared to be working when I purchased it, but didn't test WiFi. I got home, loaded up the stock Androiid ROM fom their webpage and now bluetooth and wifi appear to be dead. WiFi always just says connecting but never finds anything. The MAC address on it is also 'unknown'. I followed these steps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52441901&postcount=47
but WiFi is still dead on here I also downgraded the ROM from 5.1.1 to KitKat, just to see if that yielded any results. Anybody have a couple of ideas on what I might be doing wrong?
I recently had my Sprint Note 5 Unlocked. Now I am looking for my hotspot button and its not here. I can manually search for the hotspot and find it in settings. When I turn it on it says its on. But I get no icon on my status bar. I see it in other devices but it will not connect.
Anyone else have this problem or any solutions?

Know what you might need to do? Install foxfi, the free version- and then run the hotspot from that app. After that, the config that app sets up might fix your issue.
If that does not work, try to sideload the foxfi key app. Now that is a paid app, so if you want to go through other means to get it that is up to you. Then, use the main foxfi app again. It should work.
I noticed that foxfi has some type of certificate a few years ago, that fixes issues that can come from using root to enable native tethering. It worked then, and it worked for me now on an SM-N920P.
Let me know if it works.
I researched and tried everything I could but running GSM on our CDMA phone simply would never let me increase number of connections above 1. You can change it up to 10 IF you don't care about GSM phone calls and switch the radio to the regular Cdma/lte/auto. I just did that since I did not want or need calls while I was using it as my homes wifi source.
I've had my Verizon Pixel for about 3 weeks now. When receiving the last two system updates, I would get a download error when trying to download them over my home WiFi. When I disconnected from my home WiFi it downloaded fine over LTE. Other than that, all other downloaded on my phone over my home WiFi work fine.
Anyone else seeing this?
I had the same issue on 2 Verizon phones. Turn off wifi to get the update to start downloading. I can then turn on wifi and the download continued. Strange.
