macbook wireless problem

[MichaelHo]

I have a netgear wireless router modem.
The macbook connects to it and internet is fine. Sometimes when i wake up the macbook it would say its connected to the wireless network but would not let me load webpages, on the router it says that the macbook is not actually connected. To reconnect id have to use the assistant again.
Has this happended to anyone else?

This seems to be a "known" problem....

ie it's talked about on the apple discussion forums:

Not read them, just seen them.

Hopefully there is something of use to you?

No worries mate

I gotta do something whilst waiting for my own MacBook lol!!
Not to mention the fact, I've had a powerbook for almost 3yrs, so have seen some of the software issues previously.

Virtually read every review twice, LOTS of discussion forums.

Been looking for a sleeve today, to keep the macbook in etc.

Well the one I want is out of stock! Typical!

Apparently they had a real influx of orders coz not many other people have stuff available for the macbook yet.
