My MacBook drops connection regularly!

The one problem that I have been having with my new Macbook is with its network. I have a Linksys WRT54GS router with the DD-WRT firmware loaded on it, and when I am running on battery power, during periods where network access lulls the wireless from my Macbook disconnects. I haven’t really confirmed that it’s a power management issue, but it sure feels like it, and the thread on apple.com below seems to indicate that it’s likely. It might also have something to do with WEP, although some people seem to be having issues whether they are running WEP or not.

If I get this figured out, I’ll try to post a followup.

Oakland Athletics, AL West Champions, 2006

Athletics, AL West Champions, 2006

Well, the inevitable finally happened: the Texas Rangers beat the Anaheim Angels of Los Angeles California or whoever those guys are, and Oakland beat Seattle, clinching the AL West Championship in a 12-3 drubbing of Seattle. The A’s are headed to the post season after a two year hiatus. Congratulations to all the Athletics, including Mark Kotsay and Jason Kendall, who are each going to the post season for the first time after a combined 2700 or so games.

I’ve got tickets for the second home game, but I’ll feel happy if they just sweep whomever in the first round. 🙂
