I've discussed this before and was wondering if anyone had any new info on it. for whatever reason, if my MBP gets too close to my PC (also on wireless connection), it completely renders the network disabled. The connections will all stop, even on a wired computer i use, until i unplug the modem and router and start them back up. I cannot for the life of me figure this one out but it drives me insane.
Got a tip for us?

Why, oh why, does my MBP break my wireless connection?

Very helpful and insightful - thanks for your contribution to the thread.
Anyway, to the OP, have you tried changing channels on the router?

I don't know if it's related, but I've been having serious issues with my MBP and AE. The connection will drop in and out.. finally rendering it useless. Little green light is on.. so it appears like it's working, but the network doesn't even show up under my list of availables.
This happened at least 7 times yesterday :/
