Since the new update my aiport connection has worked perfectly especially at my college where it always forgot the network and timed out. Have any of you noticed any improvements or are you still having problems?
Got a tip for us?

10.5.5 fixed my airport!

While I can't speak to "increased throughput" (mine has always been crazy fast) I can say that my MBP remember's my network now. Yeehaw.
That's great, I'm interested to see if other people are still having problems, because I read that some people still had issues in some forum somewhere.
I didn't have a problem, either, until recently. it was really strange. My mbp just started not joining my airport network automatically when waking from sleep. If I turned airport off and on, it would join, but not otherwise. Either way, it's working now and I can't complain.
I also had problems when I was using 10.5.4 but usually turning off my airport and then turning it back on didn't fix it. I usually did a restart or I just would let it sit there for a while and eventually it would remember again and connect, instead of giving me the "timed out" message.
I had problems that I believe were introduced with 10.5.1 and solved by 10.5.2. I know it wasn't the case for everyone. Before 10.5.2 was released, doing these things completely solved the issue: changing the channel from 1 to 11, increasing the multicast rate, going from b/g compatible to just g, and turning on interference robustness. Not saying it was all, but at least one of those
