Q: My MacBook with OS 10.6.8 either does not find my wifi or I get timed out when trying to access. But some times it will get access? All other devices gets access.

But all other devices get access..and then again my Mac Book suddenly gets access. I have tried to delete a file containing nettwork info once, but it did not give any permanent solution to the problem. And other symptom is that I always looses the access after hibernation.

Tanks in advance.

Yours sincerely

Desperate:-)

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

    Are you still battling this problem? My laptop does this too! It's extraordinarily frustrating as I just bought one of the new ones yet it refuses to connect. Even if I plug my iPhone in as a personal hotspot using a USB sometimes it says that even that connection has timed out. Any advice??

    Thanks :)
