Hi guys,
I had a previous thread asking for advice about my MBP not connecting to the internet on wakeup, while my wife's MB does work almost always, with very occasional errors.
I have an Airport Extreme and a Belkin ADSL2 modem, both laptops are running Leopard but the problem has been there since Tiger.
I can see the modem immediately on the wireless network. My workaround is to log into the modem, disconnect and reconnect it, and after about 2 mins I'm on the net.
I have had good advice on settings and I find i already have all the suggested settings, including NOT having the 'disconnect when sleeping' setting selected.
If I can't get this resolved through software, can someone recommend an ADSL2 modem that works reliably with an Airport Extreme?
Failing even that, if I get a DLink DIR-655, can I reconfigure the Extreme to be a print server for my printer and use the DLink as the main wireless router?
Thanks for any advice you have!
Ken.
