[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 318868, member: 24098"] I have noticed that the antenna in my MacBook Pro is not nearly as powerful as the antennas in previous notebooks. I don't know if the same holds true for you, but before you change the DNS settings, I would try to figure out if you've got good wireless signal strength. Once you've eliminated that as a possibility, then start tweaking your Internet settings. The easiest way to eliminate a wireless issue is to just hook your MB up to your router with Ethernet and see if the problems persist. Also, make sure that your MacBook isn't connecting to someone else's wireless network. OS X is really quick to configure and attach to a wireless network, but sometimes it may be a little to quick to jump on one of your neighbor's instead of your own. [/QUOTE]
