gav1488 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Ok first I installed 10.4.6 and after install it actually looked up the wifi for my laptop. No harm no fuss it was great. I then decided to search for some stuff on the internet and play around with the mac OS. All of a sudden out of the blue the connection was gone. I didn't do anything that I know of to make it happen. I then went to find a wifi finder app. I found a great one jiwire and was back in buisness. After a day or two I decided to upgrade to 10.4.9. Right from the start I was having issues. First let me say I'm new to mac's OS so I'm not sure if this is an easy fix or not. I can't seem to get online now after upgrading. I went to jiwire and it brings up no hot spots at all. I know there is an issue now becuase it should list mine allong with four others. I tried other apps and still a no go. Anyone have any ideas. My setup is a dell xps gen two laptop. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/63480-strange-wifi-issue-need-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecker Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Revert back to 10.4.8 if you are having such serious issues. Or you could try downloading the 10.4.9 or 10.4.10 install DVD again and reinstall from that. hecker Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/63480-strange-wifi-issue-need-help/#findComment-449412 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav1488 Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 Ok so there is no work around or setting in the connection area that can be changed. The earlyer one had a thing where it showed me all the wifi signals and now it's like they are bieng blocked.

hecker Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 You can try using kisMAC to analyze your WIFI environment. Be careful, though. That software is considered illegal in some countries.
