Anyone got a fix for the following?

Turn on MyWi and it's all fine - AP & 3g connection no problems. Turn MyWi off and the iPad will not connect to a WiFi network, now I could live with having to manually reconnect but it refuses to connect at all.

iOS 4.2.1 & the latest MyWi downloaded fresh via Cydia (bought & paid for not a cracked version)

EDIT: Sorry should have said, this is about running MyWi on the iPad itself.

Have you tried manually disconnecting from your MyWi connection before turning it off? For example, if I turn off Wifi on my iPad before disabling the MyWi source, then turn MyWi off, then re-enable Wifi on the iPad, it finds my other Wifi connections just fine. Hope that makes sense...

I've tried all the permutations I can think of, including power off/on - I think reading your post that you're running MyWi on an iPhone & connecting the iPad to that? My problem's the reverse, I want to run MyWi on the iPad itself.
 
I notice the same thing. It doesn't matter whether its an iPad or MBP. If you turn off MyWi, and turn it back on, wifi won't connect. I have to end up rebooting the phone.
