MacFixit reports some users experienced connectivity problems, especially with Airport/Wireless setups after OS 10.4.2 updates. This was due to new security features and from what I can tell a huge upgrade of Airport and the way it operates. Just re-initialising passwords and connection worked for me, although if their is inactivity for a period of time PB will disconnect itself from Access Point but reconnects upon next request. I'm at the point where I will have to ring Telstra for support. This is the only hassle I've had with Tiger. I would have already been onto them. Even if they do not have a known fault when you ring them, they will after you have informed them. Cheers! Rob

Hi Vlad, I'm just installing an Airport update (4.2) which appears to have just been released. Perhaps try installing that. Cheers, Matt.
