Wireless annoyance...

Recently I bought a small MacMini 1,83GHz Core2Duo for hardware backup purposes... I like the internet sharing a lot since! Sitting on my bed surfing the net with my Powerbook or iphone is very nicely working!

The only grudge is that if I want to use encrypted (WPA) internet sharing after waking up the MacMini, I have to uncheck/check the internet sharing box every time in order to make it work... if any of You has a workaround or better experience with that, please share! Since I am living at a place where almost all neighbouring flats have wireless computers I'd rather not let them have free access to mine;-)...

cheers, mat

Seems wireless issues are still a problem for Apple. All I can suggest is putting your network on a different channel. Other than that, the usual tech fix I've heard for this is a fresh install of OS X.

well, since I have tried the former and refuse to do the latter due to lack of time- I guess I'll wait and see.... maybe it'll get fixed via the next update? I will drop a note in their forums to get their attention... but thanks for the help!

nice one... You should check the isolation of Your micro, this should not happen as far as I know... or You interrupt surfing for a while, say 2min's to get the chocolate toasty...
