Yeah, I know. And "at one time" in this case is only about two months ago when they got a couple more Macs and had me install wireless internet. A total of four Macs and two PCs at their location. And it's important to emphasize, I *think* one of the new Macs is killing the aBO. When it does they think my wireless internet service stinks. I need to be out signing up new customers, not chasing down problems not caused by me. Then again, what if it were another brand of wireless bridge I had chosen to install out there ... would I be better or worse off?
