Hi,
I am running an iMac 5.1 with OSX 10.4.11 and use a wireless Netgear DG834G router and up until the last week or so I have had no problems. The problem that I now have is that I am able to connect to the router and work OK (signal level around 80%) but regularly the internet connect just locks up even though the connection to the router is still up (signal level still at 80%). I started off by rebooting the router but got feb up with this as 5 minutes later it would lock up again.
On further checking I found that by turning AirPort off and on on my Mac the connection came back, does this indicate a problem the my Mac rather that the router and if so any ideas what I can do to fix it?
Thanks
Steve
