Here is my problem. All of a sudden when I wake from sleep my powerbook no longer connects to my network. I need to reboot then it works fine. If I switch to airport at home it works fine. I'm not sure what to look for. Possibly a corrupt .plist somewhere?

I had the same problem. It wouldn't happen everytime I put my iBook to sleep and it would also happen after fast user switching on occassion. It only happened, or I only noticed it after I installed the airport 3.4 or 3.4.1 update (happened under both). Today I down graded to airport 3.3, so I will let you know how that goes. So far it has been acting okay.
