I also have a stock G1.  Perhaps the issue is a result of something
wrong after the upgrade to 1.6 on certain phones.  There is another
topic on this forum at
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/2a221443d0298d50/e29c74cb934027ba?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=wifi+mobile+connection#e29c74cb934027ba
titled "  I get the "unable to start wifi" " where people are
discussing being unable to use Wi-Fi after upgrading to 1.6 until they
hard reset their device to the factory defaults.

I don't think this is exactly the same issue I am seeing because I am
not seeing the "unable to start wifi" message they discuss.  When I go
to the Wi-Fi settings it says I am connected through Wi-Fi, and the Wi-
Fi icon is shown at the top of the screen.

In the Wi-Fi settings when I disable Wi-Fi, the Wi-Fi icon at the top
of the screen goes away.  When I re-enable Wi-Fi in the settings, it
says that it connects and I see the Wi-Fi icon come back at the top of
the screen.  Watching during this process I can see that the EDGE icon
did go away when the Wi-Fi icon showed up, but about 2 seconds later
the EDGE icon came back on at the top of the screen.  Both the Wi-Fi
and EDGE icons stay on after that.

I don't know if the phone is actually using the Wi-Fi network or the
EDGE network, only that it is reporting the active network is the
Mobile network.

I have had some customers contacting me about issues with the
application downloading over Wi-Fi, so I think that others must also
be seeing the Wi-Fi not working  correctly on their phones.
