My 17" 1.5 GHz PowerBook (July 2004 model) just recently began
having trouble getting and maintaining a wireless internet
connection when it's open at a comfortable angle. The screen needs
to be opened about 60 degrees for the computer to get or maintain
the wireless capability. The result is that I have to move the
screen to an open angle of around 60 degrees (give or take), click
where I want to go next, wait for it to load, then open the screen
back to a comfortable angle to do what I want to do. I have tried
this at home as well as at a coffee shop with free wireless
internet. I'm pretty sure that this behavior started BEFORE I
installed VirtualPC and Windows.
What do you guys think?
This has got to be an antenna issue. The antenna is in the back of
the screen, so you probably have a flaky connection.
