For the past year, my family have loved their MacBook Pros. It does everything they want, but one issue has plagued both MacBooks: The wireless connection.
Every ten minutes or so, the Internet will stop working. Airport still detects both networks in the house (and is in fact, still connected), but the Internet freezes.
The only fix to this problem is by turning Airport on then off... until the problem occurs again ten minutes later. The only reliable system in the house is the Mac Pro, which is connected via wire. When I do use the Wireless, it starts having problems.
Now, I would have stated it's a Wireless Router issue... but remember, we have used several routers over the years. That, and Airport detects them - The Internet just doesn't work. Which leads me to believe that it has to be an issue with Airport or OS-X itself. The Windows laptop seems to do fine. Admittedly, the Playstation 3 has difficulties finding the network. But it's fine once it makes a full connection.
My point is this: Does anyone else experience the same issues with their Macintosh products? And if so, did you ever find a solution?
