[QUOTE="imme, post: 707411, member: 47631"] Hello, I am having a wireless Internet problem with my macbook pro. Here at my house I originally had a LINKSYS wireless access point, and the wireless connection kept fluctuating in and out. My girlfriend has a black macbook and she doesn't seem to have the same problem that I am having. This suggests there is something wrong with the wireless card in my MBP... but When I visit my girlfriend's house or my house at university I dont seem to have a problem with the wireless connection... strange, maybe its the access point at my house? Today I received a netgear wireless modem/router... I still seem to be having the same problem as I did before with the connection fluctuating, my girlfriend dosent have this same problem as me... If i turn my wireless on my MBP off and back on the connection goes back to full, but then after a while it will drop down, the Internet will not work, then after about 30-60 seconds it will go back up. Has anyone got any idea's on what could be the problem or what I could do to fix it? I have apple care but I would die if I didn't have my macbook pro for a week! I have tried changing the channel numbers on my wireless router/access points. I also jsut changed the position of the router, so we will see how that goes. any idea's on what I should do? anyone else experienced the same sort of problem? thanks [/QUOTE]
