I have been having this problem all week.

My Macbook aluminium can't see my wifi network. I have changed the channel to one that isn't being used by neighbours and my iphone picks it up straight away. In other words, the router is fine. It's just the macbook can't see it. This is driving me nuts if anyone can help...

My airport card details...

 Card Type: AirPort Extreme  (0x14E4, 0x8D)
  Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (5.10.131.36.1)
  Locale:   ETSI
  Supported PHY Modes:  802.11 a/b/g/n
  Supported Channels:   1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 100, 104, 108, 112, 116, 120, 124, 128, 132, 136, 140
  Wake On Wireless: Supported

The funny thing is that is was intermitent on Saturday. I had to keep restarting router and it worked for about 5 minutes, now it doesn't connect or see it at all. Tried using kisMAC and it can't see network either.

Thanks, C
