Mac Airport update
it's not just you - the apple airport update 3.4 is rotten to the core. If you've used software update in the alst 2 weeks updated and are having range problems, IP problems, or firewall problems, you can uninstall the update by following the direction at this site:

When my son got his (*)&)()& Macintosh, I decided to get a wireless router so that I could hook his computer into the network. I consider the Airport, for about 1 second, before buying a wireless/wired router from Linksys for less than half the price.

i'm running the d-link here, and the update went wacky on my side. It's a card software problem, not a base software problem.

Hello!
The range appears to be a bit decreased. I agree. Now I get one bar where I got two with the WAPs in my neighborhood. M |

I can now get back some of the range :)
Heya,
I have 3.4.1 here on my PBG4 and it gives me back the range I need. Now if it had an external antenna connector M |

apparently not mine
The 12" I have here doesn't. It's got an internal antenna, which is quite good.
