Folks,
Any input on this would be much appreciated. I've got a bunch of Macs at home,
ranging from a G4 400 (wireless) through a G4 dual 1.25 (wired), G5 iMac
(wired), Intel iMac (wireless) and a couple of powerbooks/macbooks. I have a
Comcast cable modem network at home driven by a MaxPower (OWC) draft 802.11n
wireless network. For the older macs and powerbooks I have either PCI cards or
PCMCIA adapters running the manufacturers software and everything works well
(except iTunes video streaming of content that was not directly downloaded fom
the iTunes store - this broke quite a few versions ago and was my reasoning for
upgrading the network in the first place). The problem comes when I try to use
inbuilt Airport software to access the network. The WEP passwords are correct,
IP addresses are assigned to the machines and the DNS addresses for Comcast are
all added. Sometimes on some machines I can get access to the internet and
sometimes I can't. And
sometimes when I have access I randomly lose it. This isn't machine specific,
it is specific to the mode being used to log on, and I'm not having any issue
getting an IP address assigned, so I am out of guesses. Any input would be
much appreciated - machines are either running 10.4.11 or 10.5.5 with the
latest versions of airport installed.
Thanks
Chris
