Why does my iMac say "Self-Assigned IP address" and not connect to the network when 1) it has been working fine and 2) the other computers on the network are able to connect without any issues?
How can I make my iMac connect to the internet again. It has never done this before!
In our flat we have three MacBooks, and two of them are repeatedly dropped off the wireless network, every five minutes or so. The other one works fine. We all have the same OS version (10.4.11). Possible relevant differences: the working one has a model identifier of "MacBook2,1" while the others have "MacBook1,1". Also, the working one has an AirPort card firmware version of 1.2.2 while one of the others has 1.1 I believe (not sure about the third). All Apple software updates have been applied to the non-workng one; the problem has persisted for weeks. Has anyone seen this before?
The wireless router is a BT Home Hub, for what it's worth. The non-working Mac owners report that this problem has not happened with other wireless networks.
There are a lot of products out there to wirelessly connect your iPod to the radio, but I have no idea which one I should buy. Ideally something small I could toss into the glove compartment when I wasn't using it.
I've also heard that sometimes they need to be really close to the radio -- are there some out there with longer ranges? Thanks!
