For several months, our Graphite iBook (G3/466 Mhz, original AirPort card) has worked fine with our home wireless network (Apple AirPort originally, now Netgear WiFi G hub).
Recently, though, Classic applications on the iBook have sporadically (sometimes several times an hour) lost their WiFi connection. (OS X connectivity continues.) Only way to restore it is to force-quit and restart Classic or restart the machine altogether.
The problem seems independent of the WiFi transmitter, so I suspect some sort of software configuration.
Classic networking doesn't directly access the hardware, it accesses the network through OS X. That means that the Open Transport stack is unloading for some reason. Try disabling any non-OS 9 extensions and control panels.
