This only happens every once in a while, less since I installed ML, but it's annoying. Sometimes, when I boot it up (MacBook 5,1- Aluminum Late 2008) the WiFi will be turned off. Ok fine. So I go turn to it on, which when I do the WiFi logo in the menu bar makes it look like its on. However, it doesn't display any WiFi networks, so it's obviously not on, just appears to be on.

Again, this only happens every once in a while, but it's really annoying. Any suggestions/similar problems? I did take it to the Genius Bar and they did their test thing, and it said the Airport card was fine.
