I woke up my MacBook Pro from sleep this evening, having used it perfectly fine a mere 10min earlier, and found that it was refusing to connect to my wireless network. After half an hour of troubleshooting, I find that for some reason, OSX has decided to set my airport's locality to 'US', meaning channel 13, on which I broadcast my WLAN, is no longer reachable. Upon further inspection I find the following entries appearing in Console every so often:
This has literally just started happening out of the blue. I have changed nothing whatsoever software or hardware wise. The laptop was literally just put to sleep, woken up, and now it's doing this.
I'm temporarily set up on channel 11, but ideally I'd like to get back to the less crowded channel 13. Why on earth is it doing this?
