Airport Extreme update to 7.6.3 orphans my Dell Latitude D620

Anyone else experiencing this?
I dutifully upgraded my Airport Extreme to 7.6.3 from 7.6.1 as instructed by my computer.
This is the latest version of the Airport Extreme - simultaneous dual band, etc. Purchased a few weeks ago.
My Dell Latitude D620 will no longer connect properly to the network. The "DW WLAN Card Utility" shows that it is sending packets, but not receiving them. The signal strength is strong, as expected and normal.
I've ensured that all updates on the Dell are installed. The hardware is a "Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-Card", original and internal to the unit. The driver is 5.60.18.9
All other devices (laptops, iphones, Apple TV, etc. - including a more 'modern' Dell laptop) are working fine both before and after the update to 7.6.3.
This worked perfectly prior to the update to 7.6.3. So with considerable trouble, I reverted to 7.6.1, and the laptop could connect again. Upgrading a second time to 7.6.3 and the problem reappears.
If anyone has any ideas on this before I junk my trusty old Dell laptop, please let me know!

Did anyone ever found a solution to this?
I upgraded Airport Extreme to 7.6.4 and the Dell D620 is having problem connecting. Sometime it connects but no Internet access. I have 2 other none Dell laptops and Iphone 4. They all work with the Airport router. Just the Dell that having an issue.
Is reverting back to 7.6.1 the only solution?

AirPort Extreme Update 2007-004 did not solve my reliability problems.

The latest update from Apple did not fix the problem on my system, and now I don´t know what I should do, is there anything I can do to somehow fix it?
I can´t use the computer like this, it´s very annoying, for example I can´t browse the web with Safari(constant "Failed to open page" or "You´re not connected to the internet" messages), ethernet is not an option, besides, what´s the point of a laptop if I cannot connect to the network wirelessly?
This is my first MacBook by the way, I like its look & feel, easy of use and integration, but this AirPort issue completely took away the "just works" image I had of Apple´s products.
Don´t get me wrong though, I knew the Mac was not going to be perfect, and that there would be problems(as usual), but I would never have expected something like this.
I´d really like to get this thing to work, the Mac pretty much offers the kind of integration that I´ve always wanted in Linux.
Anyway.. am I the only one whose system is still having problems with AirPort?
What can I do to fix this?
Should I just wait until Apple releases another bug fix for this? how long would this take?
Should I return this MacBook to an Apple store?
I bought this in the U.S. and there is no store on my country(Uruguay), there´re however some Apple Authorized Service Providers, should I take it to them? would they give me a brand new Mac or repair this one for free if I´m covered by the warranty?
I read(http://www.apple.com/support/contact/) that since I´m still within the 90 days of ownership I can call Apple Technical support, but since they don´t have a number for my country, is there an alternative way of contacting them?(via email?).
I don´t know.. what do you people think I shoud do?
+Please don´t recommend me to install an older version, I really don´t want to, besides how do I know it will fix the issue?+
About the problem:
Symptoms:
AirPort signal level randomly decreases until connection is lost, and there is no automatic reconnection.
Manual reconnection is required and might not always succeed, and even if it does, it doesn´t last long(usually less than 3 minutes).
Sometimes the network is missing from the menu(when clicking the wifi icon on status bar) and turning off and on AirPort is required.
Judging from what I´ve read here and found on google, this is a known common problem that dates back to at least april 2007(see [1]).
*Some (useful?) Information:*
0) It might have worked better before updating (10.4.9 is the version of my Installation discs, I didn´t reinstall) to 10.4.10, but I can´t say for sure.
1) According to [1] this seems to be a software problem in OS X, since the atheros driver works fine under Windows.
2) It doesn´t matter if the laptop is running from battery or not, and it doesn´t seem to be related to waking from sleep state since it happens on a clean restart too.
3) Once in a while, the OS asks me to enter the WPA passphrase again to connect to the network, why does it do this if the passphrase is already stored inside the default login keychain?. (entering the passphrase again does not fix the problem)
4) Wireless router is a speedtouch modem, it´s properly configured and it´s known to work, its leds indicate that everything is ok.
5) The MacBook is approx. 6m away from the speedtouch router(walls in between), electronic devices: headless computer next to the speedtouch modem, printer, radio, tv (note: not that it matters since the laptop has worked from this location before).

Hi,
Well I don´t know what to think now.. I installed the last security update, restarted, went to sleep and now it seems to be working much better, at least there doesn´t seem to be so many drop outs.
I find it a little strange that the airport icon on the status bar that shows signal strength keeps changing, but maybe this is normal behaviour?, don´t know..
I can´t say that the problem is fixed either since I didn´t start to experience airport issues immediately after I updated to 10.4.10, so who knows?
Maybe it works for two days in a row and then it suddenly starts malfunctioning for no apparent reason.
It could be very well be a combination of little problems here and there(some even caused by me editing system preferences) that add up and manifest as a bigger problem, I´ve no idea how to trace it, and as long as it works, I don´t care..
I doubt this will help anyone, but anyway.. the last thing I remember doing before restarting was executing:
# System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Versions/A/Resources/airp ort --updateprefs
which examines network preferences and repairs them if necessary.
Then I went into System Preferences > Network, AirPort´s options and restored default settings, after that I configured it to require administrator password to "Create Computer-to-Computer networks".
I´m hoping that the whole airport issue not working after the last airport update was a weird glitch or even better, caused by me.
If it starts malfunctioning again, I´ll simply call AppleCare and let them deal with it, by the way, it kind of ***** that the only way of contacting them is via phone and no phone number is listed for my country.. no email address? ...
Best Regards,
Federico

System slows down after installing AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001

my macbook's internet related performance has been significantly slowed down recently. i have windows xp installed on my mac from where i can compare the performance of ie and safari or ie and firefox on mac. the result is ie on windows xp is much faster. the wireless connection is even more reliable and has more signal strenth under windows. these "slow" situations of mac only happens recently, and the only thing that i can think of to mark the change is the installation of AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001. please advise what i can do to bring back the good performance of mac. (i.e.:if i type in www.google.ca in the address bar of safari, the blue bar will just be stuck around "http://" for a long time before the simple page gets loaded while the status bar of safari is showing contacting google.ca)

Same scenario here, though I'm running 10.4.9. on a Mac Pro. I've tried every known fix, but Safari still stalls every few minutes - taking upwards of a minute to continue loading whatever page I was browsing to.
Other apps, including Mail, Firefox, and Remote Desktop screen sharing aren't affected - I can ping away without issue while Safari is choking, and there is no unusual Safari CPU consumption in Activity Monitor

Problems after installing Airport Extreme Update 2008-001

ever since I installed the Airport Extreme update 2008-001 my internet connection has been dropping and it's so frustrating. I normally wait and don't install updates immediately after they are released. I installed this one and now my internet connection keeps dropping.
Anyone have any suggestions??

802.11n enabler (AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001/2007-001 update)

Hi,
I'm thinking of getting time capsule and then getting the 802.11n enabler.
On the UK apple store(http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=17BDE0AD&fnode= home/shopmac/mac_accessories/airportwireless&nplm=D4141) it states i need the AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001, but I can't find it.
On the US store (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?find=en abler) it states i need the AirPort Extreme Update 2007-002 update. I found that one and downloaded it but when trying to install it says "This volume does not meet the requirements for this update".
What do I need to to get this update??
Do I already have it??
Am I even able to get 802.11n??
Any help will be welcomed
For clarification these are my specs taken from system profiler.
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac5,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.16 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache (per processor): 4 MB
Memory: 2 GB

So it looks like I can't get 802.11n on my mac then. Oh well, good excuse for a new mac.
The apple store is quite misleading then it says you need either:
MacBook Pro with Intel Core 2 Duo
MacBook with Intel Core 2 Duo
Mac Pro with AirPort Extreme option
iMac with Intel Core 2 Duo (except the 17-inch, 1.83GHz iMac)
I have the latter iMac with Intel Core 2 Duo (2.16Ghz), will probably get time capsule anyway though.

Probem with AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001 and InternetConnect

Hello,
I have just installed AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001 through SoftwareUpdate. SoftwareUpdate reported a successful installation and invited me to restart.
On restart, the machine does connect correctly to my wireless network, but InternetConnect does not give any information or allow any control, reporting Network Not Avaiable, Signal Strength 0, and Status not available. InternetConnect also does not allow me to turn Airport off.
Everything was fine before the update.
Looking in /var/log/install.log, I see that the process was fine through Install, but in Optimize there are a couple of update_prebinding errors. [relevant bit of log fie attached below].
Does anyone have any comments or fixes?

Sorry, a bit of a case of 'post first think later' - reinstalling the update from the .dmg downloaded from the apple web site fixed the problem - no errors on the Optimizing step second time around.
But I think that SoftwareUpdate should not have reported success first time around, when there were errors reported in install.log

Intermittent conntectivity after installing AirPort Extreme Update 2007-1

Software Update updated Airport Extreme Update 2007-1 and Security Update 2007-1 on 1/28/07. Since then I have had intermittent connectivity with my AirPort card. Other Macs in my house that have not run this update are working just fine.
I have deleted all entries in the Network control panel and re-entered (I'm using WPA-Personal) and still I get a few minutes of connectivity (very good signal strength, too) and I get dropped completely. The Airport card shows a 169.x.x.x IP address which means I'm out of luck.
If I delete and re-enter the information in the Network control panel for my AirPort card and restart, I'm fine for a few minutes.
This was not happening prior to the AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001
Is there a way to uninstall these updates so I can troubleshoot? Or does anyone have any other advice?
Thanks,

I'm having exactly the same problem, I tried the fix of switching my WPA to WPA2-Personal and still about ever 15 minutes or so I have no more connection to the network or internet even though my status meter still shows me as connected to my access point. This is becomming quite frustrating because the only fix I've found so far is to reboot the machine, then I get maybe another 15 minutes or so until I loose connectivity and have to reboot again.
If anyone has any other suggestions, or knows if Apple is aware of this problem and HOPEFULLY working to correct it please let me, and the rest of us know.
Thanks!

AirPort Extreme Update 2008-003 disables airport

After working perfectly since I received my Macbook Pro on Friday, I was notified yesterday there was a Software Update called "AirPort Extreme Update 2008-003". Not thinking twice, I installed it while I was at work, then when I went home and rebooted, I could no longer turn on my airport (just the spinning beach ball). Then in network preferences when trying to turn airport on, it freezes up the system. I then have to force quit and force the machine to power off by holding down the power button. The only way I have been able to get airport to come back on is by creating a new location in network preferences called "Home". If it gets switched back to "Automatic" I can no longer turn Airport on anymore. Also, even though I can turn it on using the new location, I am no longer able to connect to the wifi network at work at all, and it fails to see as many wireless networks in our building as it did before.
I realize now after reading at several blogs online that this update was almost immediately pulled and is no longer available. Is there any way to undo or revert back to a previous state before this update or do I have to wait for a fix. Or, if necessary, should I use the DVD that came with my system to totally do a system restore of my machine?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Here's the evidence from the Console log:

Airport Extreme Update broke my wireless

The Airport Extreme Update 2007-001 issued a few days ago caused my wireless connection to drop after a few minutes. Nothing can bring it back except a reboot... every few minutes.
Before installing it, I had no problems whatsoever. It makes no difference which wireless network I'm connected to.
There is another thread on the next page, but that seems to be concerned with OSX 10.4.8 being the problem. I had no problems with 10.4.8 before installing the update, so I consider this to be a different problem.
Anyone else got the same problem? Any solutions gratefull received!

I deleted the three files mentioned further down in the article.
com.apple.internetconfig.plist
com.apple.internetconfigpriv.plist
com.apple.internetconnect.plist
This is now the longest I've been able to keep an internet connection for several days, and still going strong. In fact, it seems to be faster than it was before... but I'm not holding my breath.
I'll post back in a day or so with a proper report, in case it helps anyone else.
Thanks again.

Wireless networking fails after AirPort Extreme Update 2007-003

I have just tried installing AirPort Extreme Update 2007-003 on a MacBook Pro and wireless networking, which used to work, now no longer works.
My wireless network consists of the MBP and a Thomson Speedtouch 585 ADSL modem/router.
The symptom is that no connection can be obtained - the Airport menubar item flashes continually about once a second, as does the WLAN activity light on the 585.
The Console.log reports (repeatedly) that "configd crashed" and the corresponding information in /Library/Logs/CrashReporter/configd.crash.log says that:
"Command: configd
Path: /usr/sbin/configd
Parent: launchd [1]
Version: ??? (???)
PID: 473
Thread: 1
Exception: EXCBADACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERNINVALIDADDRESS (0x0001) at 0xb1e0cf60"
(There is a lot more diagnostic info - which I can supply if it helps)
All system software is up to date (Tiger 10.4.9) - I had just run the system updater.
If I disable Airport (i.e. wireless networking) and connect the MBP to the 585 by Ethernet, then it all works fine.
Something similar happened to my system about 4 weeks ago - I got around it that time by rerunning the MacOS 10.4.9 Combo update - but this time that doesn't work.
Any suggestions on why configd is crashing and how to stop it?
MacBookPro 15" Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Thanks for your help
Curiouser & curiouser!
My answer was going to be that keychain had nothing to do with the problem. If I log in as a different user (even a freshly-created one), I still get the same symptoms. I was also getting the same symptoms with a rescue copy of 10.4.9 on an external hard disk.
However, I thought I would have a look at my keychain using the Keychain Access utility (which, I seem to remember, has some recovery/repair functions). Lo and behold, the Keychain Access utility crashes after about 2 seconds and the crash report in ~/library/logs looks similar to one for configd. Here is a sample:

So it looks as if something is messing up my keychain (all my keychains?) and that in turn crashes both configd and keychain access.
Do you have any suggestions on where to go from here? There are two issues:
How to stop keychain getting corrupted again?
How to repair the corrupted keychain if I can't use Keychain Acess? - can you just delete the keychain file and then re-enter passwords as and when necessary?
Meanwhile I can experiment with reloading my rescue copy of 10.4.9. If this fault is reproducable, then I guess I ought to file a bug report with Apple

Airport Extreme Update 2007-003

Hi All,
I have yet to download the latest Airport Extreme update. Update 001 caused me to be without internet for over a month. 002 fixed the problem. I'm afraid that 003 might screw it all up again.
Does anyone have any insight? I'm on a 2-wire router, running Tiger on a MacBook Pro. I would really love to hear any positive / negative feedback you have. Particularly if you're well versed in wireless!
Thanks a million in advance!

> Can I do harm if I were to download the update and it was already installed?
No, the installer will say if it's not required/relevant.

AirPort Extreme Update 2007-002 just released

AirPort Extreme Update 2007-002 has just been released.
Hopefully it will fix any problems that people were having with AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001.
It also seems to work fine with any MacBooks and MacBook Pros that have been un-officially updated with 802.11n AirPort Cards from Mac Pros according to a posting on Accelerate Your Macintosh.
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/index.html#S22475
PowerMac G5 Dual 2 GHz, MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I have a Dlink 624 which I had been connecting to through WPA, but that went to heck once I installed this update.
Here's how I kinda got it working. Some of these steps may have nothing to do with it, but I'm including them to be safe:
-I ended up deleting all my airport entries from the Keychain manager, and deleting all my preferred networks in system preferences.
-Then I manually downloaded (ethernet, of course) and installed the 2007-002 update again.
-rebooted, when prompted.
-Then I tried to reconnect to my home network, which failed. However, I noticed that, this effort at least created an entry for my home network in the "Network" system preferences.
-I edited that entry and clicked the box for "show password" and noticed that my password was a messy string of characters. I erased it and re-entered it.
-Immediately rebooted. My macbook connected with my network as soon as it came up. I think that this whole method probably works along the same line as dennisyow's method.
Now here is why I say it "kinda" works: Now that I have it working, my connection is decently solid so far. Even after putting the 'book to sleep and waking it up.
HOWEVER, rebooting is a crapshoot. If I fully restart/reboot my 'book, it may connect with my home network immediately, or it may just refuse to connect and keep giving me error messages. At that point, I keep going into system preferences and reentering my password and rebooting until I get a connection again. In the meantime, I don't reboot. I just sleep the computer.
Like I said, this is using WPA-PSK. I have no problems with WEP connections so far.
At least it's kinda working, but it's very aggravating.

Lost connection to Westell router after Airport Extreme Update

I've looked through the discussions and have seem similar issues but haven't found one that I could say "that's it!"
I use the airport card in my MacBook OS X 10.4.11 to wirelessly connect to my Westell versalink router and have done so for over a year. I don't have an AEB. During updates, I left the airport extreme update checked. Why? I probably wasn't paying enough attention.
So now I cannot connect at all - at home. It's stating that my password is incorrect. I can connect at work; no password is required.
I went to the Westell website and changed my Network (SSID) name and password. Now, I'm picking up this new network but I'm still being told the password is incorrect.
Can I uninstall the Airport Exteme Update (and pray that it works) or is that too easy an answer?

You are not alone, have a look at this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1015&start=0
Unfortunately, it appears that the 2007-02 update has broken Airport running on Macbooks and Macbook Pros that attempt to access wireless routers using WPA. I've spent a lot of time looking for a solution, and at this point there appears to be no reasonable fix until Apple corrects this serious flaw. If you have AppleCare, perhaps a phone call to them would help them become more aware of the situation. Until they do, many of us are without the use of Airport, particularly where it is not possible to switch off WPA in a shared environment (such as my office).

Time Capsule & AirPort Extreme Update

If we have Time Capsule do we need to install the AirPort Extreme Update (version 1.0) that's available via SoftWare Update, or is this for standalone AirPort Extreme only?
I imagine it's applicable for both, but as I didn't see it spelled out as such, I'm a bit hesitant to go ahead.
Thanks in advance for the clarification.

Hi Mike,
according to the page you linked, this firmware update is only applicable *"for late 2009 AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule"*
There seems to be no direct download link. Maybe to avoid confusion.
Do you have one of those ?
If not this won't work.
If yes, then use these instructions http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1218 to update using the Airport Utility (which you should update to 5.51 before).
Hope it helps
Stefan

Airport Extreme Update 2008-004 Fails Install on Mac Pro 2.8Ghz

After running the Software Update and being notified that Airport Extreme Update 2008-004 was available, I ran the install program and received the following error:
"The update "AirPort Extreme Update 2008-004" can't be saved.
The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by "Apple"."
When I ran SW Update on my iMac 2.4Ghz, the same install ran and installed fine. Anyone have any ideas on what's ailing my Mac Pro (the newer machine)?
Thanks in advance.

It's now available from software update page:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airportextremeupdate2008004.html
Try download it manually.
