Sporadic Airport internet feed

So the most bizaar thing is happening with my powerbook

I have a 12in, 867mhz, 640 ram with an airport extreme card.

It works great at school and I never have any issues connecting to the internet. The computer I am on now is my own powerbook, but the one that I need help with.

So the I have my own working just fine at home here like it always has, but the other powerbook does the wierdest thing- I get 3-4 bars from the wireless router but the internet doesn't really work. I say not really because it will be able to load like my gmail randomly and most of the time, but no other site. I do a Network diagnostics and it says that everything is cool except for the Internet and the Server which are both red. But then it says the network changed and now it works...and now it doesn't etc. I have restarted my powerbook multiple times, I have reset/restarted the router and cable modem numerous times and nothing seems to do the trick. All other computers are working fine on the wireless network but this seems to be real finicky! What gives??

totally boggled,

Kevin
 
Can't solve the problem, but I had the same "network changed" problem a couple of months ago when I took my iBook to a hotel and used their wi-fi. Stayed there three nights and it did this on the last night. Diagnostics showed all OK too. No one claimed to have changed anything, but I'm certain the problem was at their end - or possibly at the ISP.
