[QUOTE="kriss41, post: 702847, member: 63234"] [b]Identical problem[/b] I am having the exact same problem. Running a DIR 655 Dlink router. My XP laptop can connect, my vista main desktop can see it and connect wirelessly, and the main xp desktop is connected to it through ethernet cable, but my G5 can't see any networks in the airport software. I just upgraded to Leopard, didnt make a difference. SO far i've tried the following based on other posts. Reset the router. Power cycled the cable modem. Reinstalled the router on the desktop ethernet connection so it would broadcast again. Reconnected the other desktop wirelessly Configured the router as follows. No security CHanged from N to G, and then B...nothing worked so switched back to auto N G B changed the threshold to 2306 from default 2346 (this was a tip i found someplace on the internet...still didn't work) After all of this i just reset the router to deafult again, reinstalled on the local computer and set broadcast to no security All the Pcs can see and connect. The mac saw it for one second, then dropped it. Now i can't see the network at all on my mac. I'm losing my mind so someone please help us! [/QUOTE]
