Cannot connect to wifi!

[rcarranza]

Hey guys,

I've done a little digging and cannot find an answer to this problem.

I have a Macbook circa November 2008 and a Netgear WNR854T Router.

I try to connect to my wireless network but my Macbook won't do it. It will list my network in the network list and will connect to other unsecured networks but not to mine. I use WPA2 security on the network.

Alternatively, my Macbook Air, Mac Mini, iPhone, iPod Touch, Blackberry, Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii have no problems connecting.

There is no MAC filter enabled on the router.

Any ideas?

Have you tried resetting the Router and your MacBook's Airport system?

Yeah.

My network appears in the list and when I try to select it the Macbook tries to connect but just times out.

Hmm. Disconnect EVERYTHING from the network, all your other computers, PS3, Xbox etc. Then try connecting your Macbook. It may be an overload or somethin'

Same issue here. Have re installed Snow Leo, removed and re fitted the airport card, re booted the router a thousand times. Weird thing is my work C2duo MacBook is fine but my own c2duo MacBook is nothing but trouble.
