My Mac keeps losing Wifi connection with the router
Hi Guys,

I need some help and advice. I have been experiencing drop of connection very often from my Macbook to my Wifi Router. I have tried to set a specific IP for my Macbook through the router and that didn't help either. Its like being kicked out of the network. Can anybody shed some light on this.

Thanks.

Hi Guys,

Could this be caused by a restarting router? I mean maybe the router just restarts itself uncannily ? Just adding more scenarios to the original question.

Thanks

Hi Yankee Rose,

My router is a Thompson router (provided by my ISP O2 UK) - I'm not sure what is the model number or series exactly. As for the firmware I'm sure how to update it since what I see is only the O2 interface when I log into the router's settings.
