Hey all,

I've got a problem where I get wireless dropouts, but only in Leopard. Right now I'm writing this booted into XP, where the problem doesn't seem to exist. I'm using a Linksys WMP54GS v1.0, which runs as auto-detected by Airport, and I am connecting to an RCA DCW725 router. When the OS is first booted up, I have a full connection for anywhere between 10 to 30 mins, at which point it just disconnects and is unable to detect the router, unless I restart the OS, but then the same thing happens all over again. So I've determined that the router is operating fine, and my card is functional. I just need to figure out why Airport suddenly decides not to like the setup.

I'm quite noobtastic, but I've got a 'mostly' working dual boot setup thanks to this site. If anyone has any solutions, I would be one happy camper, Thanks.

It's an issue with the hacks required to make AMD CPU's happy and it will affect other devices, some more noticeable than others.
