Hi all!

I've had my MBP for a little over 4 months and my AEBS a little over 2 months. Over the past two months, I've had two problems with the AEBS, one which I solved and the other which is still plaguing me.

Occasionally, the Airport status won't find my AEBS until I do "Join Other Network..." and then re-type the network name and WPA2 key. I currently have the AEBS set to create a closed network.

The thing is, it will be fine the majority of the time but sometimes when I start up, I have to get my MBP to "find" the network again. Is this normal?

The other issue I had was the signal dropping off, sometimes every few minutes. Since the AEBS was set to "automatic" channel, I have since changed it to a random # and it has been fine since. Just a random piece that hopefully helps someone reading this!
