- MBP 15" 2.66Ghz C2D 4GB ram 320GB HDD
I just got a MBP, its a mid 2009 model (got it about 2 days before the new i5/i7 models came out) and its working fine but when i wanna just wireless its flakey at best.
when on a wired connection i can go for hours on end connection but i flip to wireless i'll have it connected for 10-20 mins before firefox stops working and tries to load the page and fails, even google's page, it'll have to turn off airport and back on for it to work then it'll be fine, this is annoying
my MBP is the 15" 2.66Ghz model w/ 4GB of ram
my home set up is that my internet goes through a 2wire gateway then the wireless goes through a Belkin wireless N router (F5D8233-4) the routing for it was turned off so i think it was turned into a switch ? correct me if i'm wrong but the connection comes from the 2wire. the net works fine on the two Acer aspire laptops i have but with this one will kill stop working
i've tried zapping the Pram, turning off the IPv6, making sure my network was first priority i just dunno whats wrong.
btw i have 10.6.3, and i'm not sure if any updates came out for wireless issues in the last few days if it corrects the problem but i need help cause i'm going crazy, i haven't taken the mbp outta the house yet.
