Recently I have found this problem with my Mac, but in the past it has occurred with my iPad as well. I am finding that after extended periods of inactivity with the computer still on or going to sleep for a while, the Wi-Fi connection that was previously strong, fails. After a restart it is fine, or I will go to unplug my AirPort Extreme and that will fix the issue as well. Now what I don't know is if this is a problem with my Mac or my AirPort. Although it did happen in the past with the iPad, it hasn't for a couple of months(just before iPad 2 launch, still iPad 1).

If any of you have the same issue or have had the issue I would LOVE some feedback as this is another one of those problems that is able to worked around, but is a pain in the ass.

Thanks for any help!:D
