WiFi Problems

[Kern Mann]

Is it possible that this is a wireless N issue?  I've seen it with newer 
PC's (not Mac yet).  The solution I've used for these problems is to 
turn off power management of the wireless card.  Device Manger>  Network 
Adaptors> Your Wireless Card> Properties> Power Management tab> Allow 
the computer to turn off this device to save power.  Uncheck the box.

I hope this also helps with your issue!

Best,

kern
