Greetings
I have a Macbook Core2 2Ghz, 1GB RAM, OS 10.4.11 with all updates. I'm having a weird airport problem in that my wireless connection will go into a loop where it connects and immediately disconnects and then connects again and this will just go on indefinately. This isn't specific to the wireless network because its happened at home and in several coffee shops. I also don't think its a hardware issue because if I boot into Vista the wireless under windows connects fine. This has gotten to the point where airport is almost unusable in OSX so I have having to use windows Has anyone else heard of an issue like this?
peace
Colin

You have all of the latest Airport updates installed? I wonder if we could trace it back to a particular update.

yep all updates installed, this computer was purchased in July of last year and never used...I acquired it a couple of weeks ago and installed all updates since that time and then started using it and I have seen this problem crop up a number of times during that period.
