Hi,

my girlfriend has a G4 Powerbook (about a year old now) and from time to time, it disconnects from the wireless network and is unable to reconnect  until i reset/restart/reboot the WRT54GS v4. My Linux/Windows Notebook continues to work without problems (both, maintaining the connection and reconnecting).  The connections are made using WPA2 PSK + TKIP. Any ideas?

I'm using 2 WRT54G routers with RC5 with WPA & WDS.

I thought I was getting the router lockup with RC5 due to WDS issues, but I've had these same issues with the Powerbook G4 / Airport Extreme before ( you can select the SSID of the network, use the correct WPA passwords but never successfully connect to the network ).

The discussion might have continued from here.
