I just got a brand new ibook with airport for my wife.
I am using it with a netgear wireless router, which I already use with a windows XP laptop with no issues.
It works fine with the mac, but the signal strength is really really low, and it only works within a few metres of the base station it seems. The windows laptop works for quite a long distance away with no issues, even at the same time.
Any ideas? Please help.
I am using WEP with a hex key/password, nothing fancy.
