It isn't rocket science either to have apoll that is representative of all options, and not just negative experiences which tend lead to polarised discussions. It would be just as useful to see how many have actually experienced no or positive change in their WiFi experience in order to gain an understanding of how representative this issue is, not just who has an issue.
You mean like the other poll we had that the OP made?

This one is a follow up for the people that DID have that problem - and clearly specifically aimed at them! i.e did the update work for you.
I fail to see how this escapes you.

From his first post:
So, if you had the issue on your iPad, has the 4.2 GM 2 solved it?
He's also even said he can't edit it (twice now) even if he wanted to.
It's his poll with his options. You're perfectly welcome to start your own of course :)

Come on guys, let's return in topic.
The poll is for users that have had the WiFi problems, to understand if the fix in the GM 2 has worked.
 
In my trials, the Wifi issues have disappeared in the updated GM. However, I notice there is an issue with the AirPlay icon when you swipe left in the multitasking bar. In portrait the icon overlaps the volume controller. Hopefully there will be a tiny tweak for this in the release build.

This doesn't happen with mine.
 
This doesn't happen with mine.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that it doesn't happen all the time. Since the update, it has happened twice to me. After a while (an hour or so the last time) it returns to the proper layout. Since it has only happened twice in two days I have not been able to track down what causes/fixes the err.
 
I had the wifi problem with the original GM. After updating to GM2, I can say that wifi works great. I would even say that safari is snappier!!!!!

I have been testing for 2 days with security and without. Also tried at varying distances. I have tested using 2 different routers.
 
I'm on 4.2 GM2 ....
and i still have some wifi issue when i'm using atomic web browser, only when i'm using this app ..... very strange - some times, randomly wifi connection just stops and when I'm launching to another app, which is using wifi, it is starting again .....
