Hi,

I've had this issue for a long time, if I take my MBP down to the bedroom which is literally just down the hall, it halts internet activity (IE won't DL, won't load webpages) but it doesn't d/c from the network.
Now, only a couple of days ago it was on its desk and it had the same issue occur for a while.

I think it's quite ridiculous, I can't use my laptop more than 10-20 metres away from my AEBS. Even if I open Google and then walk down to the bedroom and refresh the page it will hang for several minutes and then time out.
I have the latest AEBS, If I hold my mouse over the wireless icon in the menu the top item which says "Airport: On" changes to "Searching for a network" and then back again really quickly - unlike normal it doesn't just do it once but endlessly.

Any thoughts?
