Hi, I bought my macbook in January 2008. I have had no problems up until recently. All of a sudden my airport started signing me out of my wireless network. I would sign back in, and there would be no problem. Then it started saying in the status bar in Safari..."connecting". I would have a full wireless signal, but no progress on the internet page would be completed.

Most recently it has shown full wireless connection, and absolutely nothing can be pulled up on the internet. I can't use iChat, or connect to the iTunes store. It says that I should be able to get online, but I can't. Even after restarting AirPort and my computer...nothing works.

I brought it into the apple store, and apparently nothing is wrong with it. What's going on?
 
1st Try This:
1. Download OnyX (a free maintenance utility).

2. Open OnyX and Click Cancel on these two Alert Panels:
-Cancel the S.M.A.R.T. Box
-Cancel the Startup Volume Box

3. Enter your Password

4. Click on the Cleaning Tab

5. In each tab, within the Cleaning Tab, execute the command. Check all the boxes in each tab. When its finished in that tab, it will ask you to reboot. Say NO. Go on to the next tab and repeat until all tabs, within the Cleaning Tab, are done. THEN REBOOT.

If that doesn't work, Either of these links May Fix It:
