This should also work for all devices and all OS versions until (at least) 2008. I have tested it with OS2006 on a 770 and OS2008 on a N800 only though.

If you do not want to do a full backup and restore (which could break quite some things on OS2008), here is how you migrate your wifi connections and their settings (keys, names, ssids etc):

On the device with the connections already configured (eg 770):

gconftool --dump /system/osso/connectivity/IAP > /media/mmc1/iap.backup

On the target device (eg N800):

gconftool --load=/media/mmc1/iap.backup

(also might be mmc2)
