[QUOTE="danipoak, post: 1716939, member: 315139"] Your experience with "geniuses" has also somewhat been mine. I was lucky in that when the antenna started getting worse I found one that recognized it pretty quickly. Unfortunately it was out of warranty and didn't have the cash to send it off then. I year later I did. The genius I got that time didn't think anything was wrong but armed with the right information I could direct him to the problem. That's the unfortunate part is to get warranty repair you pretty much have to go through them. So, armed with the right information OP should be able to get it fixed if the problem is with the mac. Something else I thought to look for that could be a sign of a bad antenna is what is your IP address? Is it self assigned or an IPV6 address? That was one of the problems I had and when I would get within a few feet of the router i would get a normal IP address. It wasn't like that every time though. Sometimes I would have a normal IP address but just no internet. [/QUOTE]
