Hi,
I've got a Mac Pro with pre-installed Airport Express. My base station is just 10 feet (3 meters) away from my Mac and all my other computers have a very good connection, but the Mac has just a 30% connection.
I wouldn't care about that, but the Mac has a lot of packet loss`. From time to time (about 1 time in an hour) the connection gets totally lost. I don't have to mention that this is a real problem. (BTW this happens in OS X and in natively booted Windows XP.)
I posted that problem to a german mac forum and many others have a similar problem, now I thought to ask here (to get an international feedback and maybe some geek advice what to do )
What is your experience with Mac Pro and Airport? Wouldn't it be useful to have an external antenna?
Cheers,
Oli
