Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing any wifi stability issues after upgrading to 10.5.7? I had just gotten this mini yesterday and am in the process of setting it up to bring to work tomorrow. Everything has been going great up until I got 10.5.7 installed - the install appeared to go ok, and it rebooted like it should, but since then it seems that I'm having trouble being connected / downloading across my wifi.

I noticed this because I had to install an update for Final cut express (120 ish megs) after finishing my OS update. I had to restart the download for the update about 10 times to get it downloaded. Each time it seems I had lost wifi connection. I had downloaded several hundred megabytes before with the other updates prior to installing 10.5.7...

I used my downloaded 10.5.7 update file as opposed to downloading it through software update (since I already had it, didn't see a point in waiting for 400 megs to download).

I have checked my permissions and done a repair. Everything on the computer appears to be acting normal, I just don't know why the wifi got hinky after 10.5.7.

ps - if a moderator reads this and feels it is better suited in the software OS forum, please feel free to move it - when I first posted it I was thinking of my mini, then now thinking about it - as it is something that *could* be on any platform with 10.5.7 instead of just the mini it might better fit in the OS forum
