Classic keeps losing WiFi Internet connection; OS X connection fine
Graphite iBook SE, running latest version of Jaguar. When connected to our home wireless network -- either an original AirPort or a Netgear WGR614 -- OS X software works flawlessly with the WiFi signal and the greater Internet beyond. But Classic-based programs (including Outlook Express, IE and printing functions) loses the WiFi connection unpredictably -- sometimes within a few minutes of connection, sometimes much longer. Only way to restore connection is to restart Classic or the whole computer altogether. And then the connection may again disappear quickly. Any suggestions for getting Classic to stay connected -- at least as well as OS X? Thanks. CM -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Sorry, but I must correct myself. Meant latest version of PANTHER, not Jaguar.

Are you running 9.2.2? Best I can think of is to re-install Classic. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
