Hi Guys, I'm very close to make a clean install that I dont want to do, this is an issue with the Airport of my Macbook pro, it's my first mac but I have experience with linux and I'm a windows power user. I make an initial troubleshooting steps:

  1. Review and troubleshoot wireless networking from my wifi network gear.
  2. After this review that my macbook pro doesn't have networking issues.
  3. Clear RAM, PRAM, SMC.

The symptom of the issue is:

  1. I'm working on a wireless network.
  2. After 60 to 20 minutes I don't have connection and I don't see any wireless network.
  3. I restart the airport with "turn off wifi" and "turn on wifi".
  4. After that i can see the wireless networks, and can connect.
  5. After 60 to 20 minutes the cycle repeat again.


Please Help me I'm starting to going mad with this issue. :confused:
 
I get a similar problem now and again...

If i remember US spec Macs have problems with Channel 11 or above... For some reason my router likes to change from Channel 6, which works perfectly, to channel 13 which can be quite temperamental.

Hope this helps :)
