[QUOTE="Boomerang, post: 471202, member: 36972"] Hi, I recently bought a MacBook (white) and it runs like a charm. The Wifi reception is very good when I run my MacBook with the built-in screen (no external monitor). However, as soon as I attach my 20" Samsung SyncMaster 203B via the mini DVI connector to my MacBook, the internet connection slows down considerably and it also happens occasionally that it enitrely looses the connection to the router. Unplugging the mini DVI connector immediately allows me to reconnect again. It took me some time to figure out that the external monitor was the cause. Has anyone else experienced such a problem or even knows how to solve it? Cheers! [/QUOTE]
