We're seeing issues with Macs running the new Leopard (v10.5) OS.  They
would lose connectivity to our Cisco LWAPP (WPA authentication) wireless
network.  The only way to resolve it has been to disable and re-enable
the wireless NICs.  Apple came out with an OS patch (I think it is
v10.5.2) that is supposed to correct some wireless problems, but I don't
know yet if this loss of connectivity problem is one that got corrected.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Mac issues


There is a known condition with wireless Macs where the adapter clings
to bad 11a cells, even when better 11g is available- we are struggling a
bit with this in certain spots right now. I'm also getting a sense that
the newer Mac laptops (both MacBookPro and Air) that have 11n built in
may be somewhat dodgy on our Cisco LWAPP network, though so far the
evidence is circumstantial at best. Is anyone else seeing Mac-specific
wireless issues?
 
 
Regards-
