Can't activate WiFi anymore

For a week now I can't activate my WiFi on my iPod Touch 4th Gen anymore.
Whenever i try to go to the settings it just crashes and i return to the homescreen.
Sometimes I can see the Setting for barely a few seconds before it crashes. The WiFi looks like it's grey and can't be activated.
I tried resetting, rebooting and restoring my network settings but nothing worked.
Anyone ever experienced that?
Thx in advance for your replies.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
iOS: How to back up your data and set up as a new device
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Also
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

NB305-N410BN-G = FN+F8 can't activate 3G / but FN+F8 can activate WIFI

Hi everybody,
got also a problem with the Toshiba FN F8 switch under Windows 7 Starter x86 (32Bit). I can switch on and off the transmission of my built in WIFI but not my built in 3G mobile broadband (Sierra Wireless Gobi 2000) anymore. It worked fine so far. But then I had to send my Netbook for service because the LCD remained black. With external monitor it worked fine... Anyhow; they exchanged the mainboard and now LCD is fine again. But my 3G connection does not work, because I cannot activate the transmission of the antenna.
Actual conditions / situation / observations:
1) Sierra Wireless Gobi 2000 - 3G card is present in the device manager, is activated and shown without any problems or restrictions.
2) I even can carry out the modem test successfully!
3) Under network connections the Sierra card is present but displayed with a red X. But I cannot activate it there.
4) In addition I can de-activate it there despite the already shown red X.
5) When I run the Toshiba Wireless manager shows that card is present but transmission is switched off. "Please switch on with FN+F8".... arrgh!!!
I tried already following steps:
1) installed all available and latest Sierra drivers Sierra 3G driver (v1.1.140; 05-03-2010; 37.58M)
2) made BIOS update to latest version 1.50 = Wireless connection switch is enabled = and WIFI works very well...
3) installed latest Toshiba Value Added Package (v1.3.6; 04-09-2010; 44.36M)
4) installed latest Toshiba Flash Cards Support Utility (v1.63.0.5C; 12-28-2009; 9.38M)
5) installed latest Toshiba 3G Connection Manager (v2.1.97; 05-20-2010; 29.28M)
6) carried out a complete system restore with system recovery (installing a 1:1 copy of the originally delivered partition of drive C:)
7) tried another way by complete new installation of Windows 7 starter x86 on emty drive C: and installed the Sierra drivers as well as the Toshiba value added package and flash cards support utility
8) tried 3rd party software for controlling the 3G connection MWCONN (find here: www.MWconn.info) - the config.exe can activate transmission for a few seconds by using the function "device/ network analysis/ start". This causes the blue broadband connection LED on the fronside of my netbook to be lit for a few seconds. But ufter the test it remains unlit again. So I can switch the transmission on temporarily but not permanent. AND - THERE IS A WAY TO SWITCH TRANSMISSION ON BY MEANS OF SOFTWARE !!! --- But HOW...!?
What did I not try yet:
1) finding someone with same netbbok NB305-N410BN-G => exchanging the hard drive temporarily to test and switch on Sierra 3G in my netbook. It will be even very difficult since I'm sitting in Germany actually...
!!! PLEASE HELP !!! = does not have or had anyone else same or similar problem... ???
Thanx in advance for any kind of useful hints and ideas!

Thank you for your reply. And YES, I've already tried the new BIOS v1.70 (even took it from the European Toshiba side, before download was officially available on the US-page) - but unfortunately also without success. It's really sad! I can't understand, why Toshiba sells such unreliable solutions. There seems to be no chance for another way to activate the antenna of the built-in 3G card. I cannot believe this!
Meanwhile I also tried to interchange the WIFI and 3G modules. But it also does not work. The 3G module in the WIFI slot has an activated antenna, but - off course - an error by showing a missing SIM-card (SIM-slot is assigned only to the other slot). The WIFI module remains completely "ignored" in the 3G slot.
Is there absolutely no solution for this problem??? What about covering single pins (contacts) on the 3G module - like with WIFI modules not originally released by Toshiba (modified Firmware) in earlier days?
Still hoping for help...

HT4623 i can't activate my iphone using wifi settings

how can i activate my iphone 4s without a micro sim. i already tried to open it using the wifi settings but it failed..
i once had an iphone 4s and activate it using a wifi settings and it works... but now it wont...how come???

You can't. It requires a SIM to activate. There is no way around it. The SIM does not have to be tied to active service, but it must be present and it must be from the correct carrier if the phone is carrier locked.

I understand you are not Apple but i was presuming that some logic or technical reason i miss was behind this.
I really do not see any logic business pratice. If i understand i can be agree or desagree but as minima i know the rules and why.

my id was with XXX and i bought Itune match one year with this account and 4 device are conected with the same account.
on Ipad device i change my ID to YYY then .... because i need to update some apps and connect to itune match i came back to ID XXX then no problem to update apps but .... no way to come back to itune match.
.... no way to use itune match anyhow with Ipad and account XXX linked with account XXX. WHYYYY ??? no clue.

Can you send SMS by using the mobile data network instead of Wi-Fi? I had the same problem setting up my 5s from a backup of my 4s. Only after I sent an SMS via mobile data network, somehow iMessage and FaceTime got activated a couple of minutes later without me doing anything else.
I even changed my Apple ID password, because at one point I could not log into my account when iMessage asked for my account details.
