Problem with my AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x87) signal

[gdon2050]

Ok, so.

I`m in a spot, my and my girlfriend, and i have an MacBook Pro, with Airport Extreme, and the latest 10.6.7 update, and my girlfriend has an dell mini notebook with an Realtek rtl8188ce wireless device...

So what`s the problem. We have near an hotspot wireless unsecured wi-fi signal, and she has 4 bars from 5, and i don`t have any signal. We are in the same spot. Both works on battery.

What the f word is happening with my macbook pro thats is so expensive, and her mini dell works so f word great. )

It is really a junk? Can i put behind my macbook pro and start with an acer or something? Some thats work?

It is my latest update wrong? It`s something wrong with my device...

In the first of time, thats connects with full signal, but after couple of seconds, my signal dropped...

So my adapter is...

Try changing wireless channels on your router, Also check any interference that can be causing this problem like microwave, cell phone, cordless phone and other wireless routers near by...
