AirPort Connection Dropping

[Whizguy101]

Hi,

 

I've updated to 10.5.5 iDeneb, and then iATKOS 10.5.5, but constantly my wireless connection keeps dropping. It disconnects and doesn't display any networks at all, just keeps scanning.

I've included my computer's spec below. I've been using OSX86 for over a year now but having wireless is a key thing I need to have working. I've ran out of ideas really.

 

I've tried installing Atheros chipset drivers from the iDeneb installation, the same happens. My PCI card is a D-Link DWA-547, which I understand is an Atheros 5008 chipset. Except it's supposed to work out the box, right? Maybe it's because of 10.5.5. I also have another issue with my Nvidia 8600GT 512mb card, in that the DVI port doesn't work upon boot, so I have to use VGA. I just get a black screen. I've tried NVinject, NVkush, even Titan.

 

My spec are as follows : http://eu.shuttle.com/en/desktopdefault.as...169_read-14416/

In addition my setup is, one 250Gb hard drive with Leopard, another 500gb with Windows XP, multi-boot via chain0. As mentioned above my plugin cards I'm having trouble with specifically is my Nvida 8600GT 512MB and D-Link DWA-547 wireless card. Everything is running good.

 

Thanks for the help in advance, and let me know if I missed anything you guys need to know.

Cheers!

Right now it connects to my network, but it's pretty erratic actually, dropping upon startup or dropping an hour into surfing. I really am totally stuck with what to do next really.
