Wondering if anyone has the same issue as me, or knows a solution. If I turn my iMac off, the FIRST time I turn it back on, it gives me a "No wifi hardware" problem and won't allow me to connect to wifi 100% of the time. The only fix I have found for this is a restart, in which it fixes the problem 100% of the time.

Any fixes for this?
 
same problem here...

very frustrating...making an appointment at the Apple store for tomorrow. Let me know if you find something else that works.

I would suggest deleting the appropriate entries from your keychain and from network system preferences. Turn off then on the airport connection on the Mac computer. Then re-connect to the network. Another thing to try is add a new network location. This has solved a network issue I had under Snow Leopard.
