I've been having problems with my airport recently. It's been dropping my wifi signal a lot even though I'm well in range of my router. It works normally (and quite well, actually) when my macbook in the same room as my router. How can I fix this?? Even my iPhone gets perfect wifi where my macbook doesn't get any at all!
