I got my MBP last week and have been having occasional problems connecting to the internet.
I have a cable modem going through a Linksys wireless-g router (model WRT54G). My mac usually connects without a problem, but sometimes it won't connect. My sister has this problem with her powerbook g4 and says she has to powercycle her router at least once a day.
Today, when I got home from work, I couldn't connect to the internet. I powercycled my router, but to no avail. I ran the network diagnostic assistant thingy, power cycled all devices connected to the modem including the modem itself and it still doesn't connect. I've also restarted the computer a couple of times.
I obviously have internet service since I'm able to post this. If anyone else has problems like this and knows how to resolve it let me know! This shouldn't be a problem with a $2000+ computer.
