So lately my macbook has been very picky with my apple airport extreme base station (Wireless N). Upon every start up I have full bars but the internet does not work. I fix this by trying to connect to another network in my neighborhood, it fails because I have no clue what their password is, but then when I connect to the airport again I will have full bars and then my internet works. When that solution fails to work I'll open my airport utility and restart my base station.
My firmware and software is all up to date. And I even wait a while when my macbook is powered up before i click on safari or email but it still won't work unless I do the steps that I stated, or just go into my airport utility and save my settings again to have the base station restart.
I have had the base station for months now with no problems, and all of my wireless stuff (wii, other laptop) will work when the macbook is having its problems.
I traced this problem to when I first connected to my college's wireless network. It seems from that point on my airport extreme at home has been having problems.
