Hi, I have a Macbook 3,1 it's a few years old and I've never had any issues until now. I was using it and stepped away for a few minutes, it went into sleep mode and when I woke it up I was disconnected from wireless. Normally it automatically connects to my home network but it wasn't. I chose my network and entered the password, it said "connection timeout."
I thought it may be my isp or router but my desktop and ipod are connecting fine. So, I hit the reset button on the router and after it is up and running again my mac connects. 10 minutes later I wake it up from sleep and same exact issue (disconnected from wireless and timeout message). Do the same thing with router and connects. I can't restart my router every time I want to use my mac so I've explored fixes (installation cd's, taking my network off known networks and setting it up again). I'm not sure what to do.
Thank you for your help.
