I had to change my Airport network settings from automatic to a specific network under the by default join dialog. Normally, this wouldn't be a big deal, but since it's not set to automatic, on those rare occasions when I'm actually out and about with my Pismo, I have to remember to set it back to automatic just to join a hot spot. Anyone know why this is? Should I delete my network altogether and just create a new one? Here's the specs: Pismo 500/1gigRAM/Airport card w/ Airport Base Station (snow). All software is up to date, with exception of Tiger. I'm currently using Panther 10.3.9. Thanks for any input on this matter, Zoltan Zoltan, This has just happened to me in the last week. Now when I come home and open up my Pismo I have to click on the airport icon in the menu and select my network. Used to do that automatically. Also it no longer asks if I want to connect to any open network it finds elsewhere. I have a Pismo 400/768/40G/Airport card with a Belkin wireless router. Using 10.3.9. Don't know if it is related or not but it takes a lot longer lately to load any Safari pages. I checked my DSL speed on one of those free sites and it has not changed. Just got a new (to me) iMac G3 400Mhz/640/10G/Airport and it seems to be much more snappier. Any programs that would cause this? Airport card gone bad? Trying to think of the changes I have made... Anybody else out there notice this? Thanks, Dan- Dan, Now see this is getting interesting. I hope we didn't stumble on some kind of bug in Panther. I'm wondering if this is just a Panther thing, or if it is something that would go away with Tiger. Keep me posted if you discover a fix. I'll do the same. Zoltan The Computer Doctor Zoltan, In the last couple of days this has come back on for me. The only change I am sure of is that I quit Macaroni (I had recently downloaded this and am running on its trial mode). Shortly after this I started connecting automatically again. I then started Macaroni up again but this time no change, auto-connect is still working. So I don't know if this had any bearing on the problem or that the timing was just coincidental. Any luck on your end? I'm glad to have auto-connect back but still curious as to what the problem was. Let me know how you are doing. Dan- Dan, WELL NOW. . . this is strange. It's working for me as well! What did I do? Absolutely nothing other than change it back to automatic after reading your last post to see if mine would work! I wonder if this was a timed thing in Airport. . . at this point I guess anything's possible. I'll keep you and the list posted in case it stops working again.

It senses (via telepathy, and advanced screen reading and recognition techniques) you have an idea about something to try, so it stops doing whatever's wrong just to confuse and annoy you. This is a highly advanced, electronic version of the old 1930's Ford No Noise Assembly which automatically masks odd noises in the presence of a mechanic, later adopted as a industry-wide standard.

Re: batteryrefill.com
I had considered them for a battery for the clamshell 366 iBook I just acquired from eBay. I decided to buy a new (not Apple) battery w/1 year warranty from an eBay seller for $77 including shipping; the one I bought turns out to give me at least 4 solid hours of operation after its first charge. I hope to hear more about batteryrefill.com. I have another clamshell on the way for my younger son, and will likely need a new battery for it. I may just go ahead and bite the bullet and try them. If I do, I'll post back. I like the idea of sending in the pack and having them rebuild it with fresh cells.

upgrading my wallstreet
i've been meaning to fix my 250 wallstreet for some time now, i've got the sound card/power supply part to replace, i'm getting more ram to install (2 x 256), and now i'm thinking... is it worth it to buy one of those sonnet crescendo upgrades? owc lists two models, one is a g4/500 upgrade for $350 and the other is a g3/500 upgrade for $200. i'll likely do the processor upgrade, but can anyone tell me, is the g4 worth $150 more than the g3? anyone have any experience or knowledge? thanks in advance. david -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: upgrading my wallstreet
i also see from wegener media: allegro g3/500 for $270 presto! g4/500 for $220 avanti g3/400 for $99 on the allegro page they also say: Why not G4? Good question.. But think about it. The only real advantage of G4 is the Altivec processor, which is rarely utilized, except for video processing. And the Wallstreet is really not set up for video processing anyway, so if you WERE going to do video, you'd save that extra $150, and get a Pismo. So, our opinion is, get the Allegro, save your pennies, and get on with life!
