My MacBook Pro no longer connects to my home wifi network
It used to connect fine, until one day it stopped connecting. It just hangs for a bit then gives me the following alert: There was an error joining the AirPort network "xxxxxx"

Inappropriate?One solution to this problem is to change the name and/or channel of your wifi network. You might want to delete all your existing keys from your keychain, too, just to clean it out. This worked well for me with the same problem.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Do you use a linksys? Rich Skrenta had this problem recently and solved it like this:
"Some troubleshooting revealed that the macbook would hang only when I was using wireless, but if I plugged the ethernet cable in it was fine. I started mucking with settings in my Linksys 'wireless-N' home router's advanced wifi settings and found one that stopped the macbook from crashing. I disabled 'frame burst' (which was enabled by default) and the problems completely disappeared."
