Thanks for the suggestion. I always thought that the ac adapter would filter power fluctuations out before they could affect the Powerbook. I always loved notebooks because they have their little UPS built in but I don't really know. The only thing I can tell that after I loose connection to the airport, no reboot of the TiBook help. I really have to bring it almost into physical contact with the airport to regain it and as soon as I move away the connection drops again. So I usually reboot the airport base station and change the wireless channel. So maybe the power fluctuations affect the base station? I guess I buy one of those expensive filters and plug the into the socket before the ABS. /h -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
