The airport on my 13" MBP is acting strange. I'll be surfing the web when all of a sudden the utility appears to lose its signal and I'm knocked offline. I know for a fact that its not my router. My other devices... a 15" MBP, iPhone & AppleTV never drop the signal.

Any ideas or tips? Or maybe it's just a faulty Airport.

Thanks!

OK well I just finished resetting everything here too.

My girlfriends white macbook would not go online and then a little later my 1 month old 13" Pro got booted as well as both Apple TV's.

It took about a 1/2 hour to get things straight and I still dont know that I really did anything.

I wonder if the last update did something to the airports ?

I use the Airport Extreme.

Anyone else having issues tonight ???

It seems like 10.6.5 seemed to do something to wireless... I haven't had a steady connection for weeks now... not too annoying though because it's a simple on/off of the airport.

A glich in software would make sense. Curious to see what others have to say.

Same thing happening to me 15in MBP 2009 . Here's the thing: I can stay online for hours on bootcamp on same network and it won't disconnect.
