I too just took my unupdated drone up among 12 other wifi networks without a hiccup.

Yeah, yeah,, you guys are your "old" firmware. I took my 3DR Solo to the park today while my new Breeze Batteries charged! My Copilot came along although he was MIA from the Photo Op?

I've been following all the posts here and have had all the same issues with the new firmware. (Blue screen of suspense until the drone lands itself). After turning airplane mode on,and wifi on, I was still a little apprehensive about going up. Knowing the cellular data is off, I was worried about the gps not being sufficiently updated. Apparently it still works just fine as I tested it by connecting the wifi to the breeze, opening maps, and walking up to the next block. The pin follows accurately.
I went up, everything works smoothly, but I did drop connection when my phone sent a push notification for 20% phone battery. I'll test again later tomorrow. It's almost dark here

Update on my crashed Breeze. Sent it back after the crash and just got the email saying its on its way back. It looks like they replaced everything electronic .

Mine's on the way to California. The slow way... UPS Ground. OFW, it's windy and cold out. Hopefully it will be back with a new GPS Module and flying well. Nice to know Yuneec takes care of its customers. I got a "canned" reply on my Amazon review, but it was a reply. They really seem to care which is an excellent thing!
Also good to know spare parts are available it the need arises. Here's one source I saw on a quick google search:

Hello Joe,
If you don't mind me asking, what brand and model phone are you using? If it is an android I might have some helpful information.

Hello Joe,
I use a Moto G4 with Android 6.0.1 and I had problems with it dropping the wifi until I read on the Android forum that Marshmallow 6.0.1 has problems with dropping wifi and that to fix it you must toggle airplane mode off and on a few times giving it enough time each time to fully connect. I also sent my Breeze back to Yuneec and they supposedly put new boards in it and flew it also (they even sent an aerial picture of their warehouse as proof (although they could have taken it with any quad they had there). Since I got it back and do the toggle trick my Breeze has flown flawlessly 8 times, probably would have been more if not for winter. Hope this helps,
Ron

Gee FLYXLSA,
I didn't know you spoke Italian?

If you've ever seen the Family Guy Italian scene, then you know that we all can speak Italian.
