Fyi - the APs require a fix as well, only Apple Airports and one other AP vendor have made the ESS fixes that I am aware of.

I knew 10.5.2 was coming, just didn't realize it was actually here. It is frustrating that something that's 190 MB in size (the 10.5.2 "patch") has so little real information available on it. I dig around on several Mac forums to no avail, and find Apple's site to be almost worthless in this respect- does anyone know where any real detail on Mac updates might be available? Also- am seeing just as many trouble reports as fixes attributed to 10.5.2 during random searches- hopefully it really does help and not set us back even further.

Other MAC users across campus report improvements in wireless functionality on their Macs since the update. Sorry I do not have more specific information. Phil From: Lee H Badman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 19, 2008 12:14 PM To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Mac issues There is a known condition with wireless Macs where the adapter clings to bad 11a cells, even when better 11g is available- we are struggling a bit with this in certain spots right now. I'm also getting a sense that the newer Mac laptops (both MacBookPro and Air) that have 11n built in may be somewhat dodgy on our Cisco LWAPP network, though so far the evidence is circumstantial at best. Is anyone else seeing Mac-specific wireless issues? Regards- Lee Lee H.
