I have a PowerBook G4 and have been connecting wirelessly to my Linksys Wireless-B router for months. Today, after I woke up the PowerBook from sleep mode my wireless connection completely disappeared! I can connect to the Internet if I connect the PowerBook directly to the router via Ethernet but I can't get it to connect wirelessly.

I've done a factory reset on the Linksys router but the PowerBook still doesn't see it wirelessly. I basically need to start from scratch. Can any of you help me? I'm in dire straits.

Thanks,

Keith

What model Linksys router?

Is the router working? Are the lights all on green?

Have you tried restarting your PowerBook?

I finally got it working by changing one small parameter on the Linksys steup page. I changed Channel from 5 to 10. Mysterious, frustrating, but best of all fixed.

That can happen if you have a neighbor whose router uses the same channel as yours. As you found out, just switch the channel and it's fixed. BTW, this should go in the networking forum.
