Hi Guys,
I recently switched to Mac.
My Airport signal strength is always showing FULL but after 10 mins of browsing my pages are not navigating further (Page can not be found!) both in Safari & Camino and even YM! is not able to send msgs (The 512 Kbps wireless modem is just situated in my room). To resolve this, I have to disconnect & reconnect the Airport every time. How can I solve this problem? If this continues my purpose of buying this macbook is totally vain.

Please help me in this regard.
 
Hmm.. It might be more helpful if you could provide details of your modem (brand, model etc.), maybe someone here might be using the same modem and have worked out a solution? or a work around?
 
Hi,

It is B-Focus 352+.

Also my friend who is using the same wireless connection by a PC laptop is getting an excellent signal and fats browsing as well.

Are you running Leopard or Tiger?

I had the same problem in 10.4.10 and Leopard.
I updated to 10.4.11 and it fixed it for me on one machine,
and then I downgraded to Tiger to fix it on the other.

Some other things to try:

Set the wireless on a different channel.
Try a different Tiger update (10.4.10 for example).
Update the firmware on the modem.
If your that close to the modem, connect with a network cable.
(Yeah I know that defeats the point, but it will work)

Good luck.
 
I bought my MacBook just 20 days back and it came with Leopard pre installed.
