Hello,
I have an iMac (24 Inch one). I love it. However, there is an odd wireless issue which I think only started after a recent update. This is what happens...
I come in from work and switch on the Mac. I go to the internet and it connects to wireless and works fine. 30 seconds later, whatever page (or connected app) I'm viewing - loses the connection. I click on the Airport icon and I see it says "scanning..." which a second or two later, changes to "On". The app / browser starts working again. Then, 30 seconds later - it's disconnected again.
This happens about 30 maybe 40 times continuously before suddenly, it stays connected. And it stays connected then, until I start my Mac up the next day.
I use a Belkin Wireless Router. In the same room where my Mac is, I have a laptop which can connect (and stay connected) to the router with no issue. This is definately a Mac software / hardware issue. The Mac itself is only a few months old so still under warranty - however, I've read other reports that this started happening after a recent update (I'm on 10.5.5 at the mo) - so it makes no sense to change the hardware.
Is anyone else getting similar problems after moving away from 10.4? It drives me totally nuts having to go through this every day!
