[QUOTE="oldskoolloner, post: 833368, member: 69044"] setup: I have two Macbooks both connected wirlessly on two seperate airport extreams one for each. The airport extreams are both connected through ethernet cables to a Draytek Vigor 2800 modem/router. To the router and airport extreames are other computers and one xbox 360 are connected through ethernet cables. They work fine sharing the connection at the same time. The problem is I can't have both macbooks connected wirlessly at the same time one can surf while the other can't. What could be the the problem? any help please would be great. One lap top has a higher prioritey over the other. diagnostics Airport is constately scanning after awhile it says its on I move the mouse away and then back on and it says its scanning again this happens constantly, this is happening on both macbook at the same time as well as when one macbook is on. They are both on the same network software TCP.IP ipv4: on both machines is DHCP subnet and router are the same ipv4 address is different ipv6: is auto DNS is the same on network diagnostics the stronger computer is fine the internet works and the server is green on the weaker the internet and the server is red i select the network i select location as automatic type passwork have keychain on now it says is fine try to surf failed I am wondering if it is the router nat settings possibly I retry says its fine failed to surf Maybe they should be both on different networks anyhelp would be great thanks:) [/QUOTE]
