EDIT: Of course the title should really read "Airport NOT working...." An unfortunate typo.
Hello there, apologies if this has been asked before, but have done a quick search and come up blank.
I am experiencing problems with my wireless connectivity on my laptop.
Details:
MacBookPro, 2gb RAM, running OX 10.5.6
Basically when I open up my laptop I have it set to automatically connect to both my wireless router at home or the one at work. But recently it has increasingly failed to connect. And today it just dropped connection even though I was sat only three metres or so away from the wireless router (admittedly behind a closed door).
Occasionally it comes up with the message "none of your preferred networks are available" but does list my wireless network in the list with a locked padlock. When I select it from the list it waits a while but then says 'connection timeout'
It's frustrating but my question is this likely to be software or hardware? Would be happy enough to reformat the hard drive and reinstall all software if that would solve it.
