cannot conect to wireless modem anymore

Hi there,

For some unknown reason i cant seem to connect to wirelessly to my adsl2 modem. I have tried 2 different modems same result - i can see them but when i connect it immediately says "conection failed" - i can connect successfully via ethernet but not wirelessly. I have a 2009 macbook pro running 10.6 snow leopard.

thanks in advance,

cheers,

Dave

update: seems I cant turn my airport off at all which i would say has something to do with my issue

If you have never been able to login to a wifi then you might want to take it in to the mac store. Your Wifi nic might be bad.

try removing all saved access points in Airport settings, also its good to clear out your Keychain from time to time. (defeats the purpose of Keychain, but it does work/help)
