Airport Reception on Powerbook G4's

Posted:
in Genius Bar edited January 2014
just wondering if you guys/gals have any trouble getting "good" reception with the airport card that comes equipped with the laptop.

Is there anything I can get to boost the reception or range?

    Reception is certainly not as good as with the Poewrbook G4 ibook or, indeed, the new MacBook.



    However, I have avoided boosting the reception on the laptop and concentrated on boosting the base station or, when able to, sitting closer to the base station. Fact is that signals are improving all the time and the POwerbook g4 airport is good enough for the job



    regards

    If it is a new powerbook and the reception is really poor try repairing permissions. This cured the same problem we had with one of ours a while back.
