[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1188331, member: 24098"] No, this is not normal - but I will tell you that Macs can be picky about the way some WiFi routers are setup. In particular: 1. Make sure that SSID broadcast is ENABLED (disabling it is common practice, but this is useless as a security feature and only makes it harder for legit machines to find and maintain a connection). 2. Use WPA or WPA2 for security. 3. Make sure your router's firmware is up-to-date. [/QUOTE]
