I use this code, it works like a charm. :)

- (NSString *)getCurrentWiFiName
{
    NSString *ssid = @"NO WIFI!";
    NSArray *ifs = (__bridge_transfer id)CNCopySupportedInterfaces();
    if ([ifs count] > 0) {
        for (NSString *ifname in ifs) {
            NSDictionary *info = (__bridge_transfer id)CNCopyCurrentNetworkInfo((__bridge CFStringRef)ifname);

            if (info[@"SSID"]) {
                ssid = info[@"SSID"];
            }
        }
    }

    return ssid;
}
