Open Settings → Wifi from alert button action in iOS 5.1

Question

I want to open Settings from my app's alertView button action with following URL Scheme.

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=General"]];
            [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=General&path=Network"]];

It's working fine for iOS 5.0 but not for 5.1 and above.

Any alternate way to implement this?

Simply no. This URL scheme has been disabled by Apple in SDK 5.1. Its not possible without Jailbreak.

This feature is no more supported in iOS 5.1 and above. No direct way to do this.
