What wireless routers work with the MacBook Pro?

I have been having problems with my inconsistent D-Link 624 and I realize that I will have to replace it.
I would like to know what routers are compatible with the MacBook Pro. My D-Link worked fine with my iBook but I think it does not work with the Intel binary. Any suggestions?

I had problems with a number of different Linksys routers (dropped signal, couldn't connect to some iChat AV calls, etc). I'd been using some Airport express routers for music around the house, which I switched around a made a primary wireless router and a reange exapnder. I've had ZERO problems since.
BTW, I was having almost identical problems with my PowerMac G5 (with a wireless card).
I'm curious if something in recent upgrades (10.4.7?) has changed the OS's ability to connect reliably with non-Apple routers.
But at least my Apple routers seem to be working very well.

    Whatever Monitor you like, exclusively. There are adapters available for everything.
    Analog VGA is not a good idea. It's a Digital world. But it can be done if you want.
    A TV set is not a Monitor. TV sets are for moving pictures, and may do badly with stable pictures, fine lines, parallel lines, smooth-edged text, and adjacent patches of bright colors.
    Wider than 1920 needs special attention to details.

  • I have an iPod G2 with a firewire 400 lead. how can I attach it to my new 13 inch Mac book Pro, is there a 400 to 800 firewire converter. USB lead wont work with the Macbook Pro. iPod used as an external drive to archive memory cards on the go.

    My G2 iPod that I use as an external drive to archive memory cards on the go cannot link with my new 13" Macbook Pro cause it uses a firewire 400 lead. It will not work with a USB lead. Is there a firewire 800 ipod lead or converter available? Can any one shed some light on this please?

    As far as I know, if a harddrive works with a Macpro, it should work with the Macbook: if your Macbook is low on power, plug in the AC adapter
    If your Macbook has a firewire port, then it should be fine. BUt i would do somemore research first.

  • Does the ICURVE work with the MacBook Pro?

    I'm in need of a laptop stand for my new MBP and saw the Griffin iCurve PowerBook/iBook Stand online. Does anyone know if it will work with the MBP? Does anyone have experience using one of these stands (good or bad)? I'd love to hear your opinions. Thanks a lot.

    There were more, but I didn't bother verifying their relevancy. I leave the heavy lifting to you.

  • Does the Asus BW-12D1S-U work with the MacBook Pro with Retina display?

    I ordered a new MacBook Pro with Retina Display, and I want to be able to burn Blu-rays. Will any of these external Blu-ray burners work with my new laptop?
    ASUS USB 3.0 12X Blu-ray Burner Model BW-12D1S-U/BLK/G/AS
    Plextor PX-B310U 6x Blu-ray Combo Super Multi Drive
    LITE-ON USB 3.0 12X External Blu-ray Disc Writer Model eHBU212-08 LightScribe Support
    I have a Mac desktop too, so if an external Blu-ray burner will not work I am going to get an internal Blu-ray burner and install in on my desktop (the LG WH12LS38K). I would prefer to get an external Blu-ray burner so I can use it on both my laptop and desktop.

    In general you should be fine, but it wouldn't hurt to contact the manufacturer and ask about compatibility. If it works with OS X on USB 3, 2 will work but slower. As for density - there are 50GB bluray disks. Nice for storage.

  • Will a telstra wireless USB work on the macbook pro running 10.6.7??? "Telstra say no!"!

  • How well does Adobe Air work with the MacBook Pro?

    If I install a program that uses Adobe Air will it affect my MacBook Pro?

    I have several other Macromedia applications - but not Air. But if the other applications are an indication, boot is going to be slow (around a minute); Air's dependence on Flash will guarantee relatively slow performance. As you know, most other applications boot in seconds.
    Your best solution would be to download the free part of the programs to determine if you find the performance acceptable.

  • Hey Dears, I was working with my Macbook pro 2011, then i have some flash light in the screen, so i shutdown the computer, when i try to open it again i had a black screen, so any one of you have any idea about what should i have to do ?

    Can you start Firefox in [[Safe mode]] ?
    You can also do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

    Hello John...
    You may have a Safari third party add on installed that was compatible with the previous version of Safari but not 5.1. Try troubleshooting > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

  • I have an 11" MacBook Air.  When I plug in my VGA adapter to my Thunderbolt port, the computer doesn't recognize it ... unless I reboot the computer.  Is there another way to get the computer to recognize the adapter?  (It works with my MacBook Pro)

    I have an 11" MacBook Air.  When I plug in my VGA adapter to my Thunderbolt port, the computer doesn't recognize it ... unless I reboot the computer.  Is there another way to get the computer to recognize the adapter?  (It works with my MacBook Pro)

    Thanks for the useful feedback, Knucklesmac. I agree. I must have blown something on the logic board -- because I had a faulty old KVM switch that would not switch between computers without some nasty hot-plugging/unplugging the VGA video cables. (wince!). It's like when Dizzy Dean ruined his arm because a line drive hit him in the foot and he readjusted his mechanics around the injury. I take the blame because this has been a great computer, and does not deserve any blame.
    If it will help anyone else reading this thread, C2G (née Cables to Go) has some interesting ideas for still getting external video out of this computer:
    -USB-to-VGA
    http://www.cablestogo.com/product/30545
    -Convert s-video or composite video signals to high resolution VGA
    http://www.cablestogo.com/product/40971
    The price range is $75-$85, which doesn't make horse sense to me for such an old computer -- which has a lot of life in it anyway, because its own 15" monitor is not chopped liver.

  • My Imac late 2012 running Yosemite does not recognise my Huawei 3g usb modem. itried to install Java bt still it does not although the same modem works with my MacBook pro . any help please

    My Imac late 2012 running Yosemite does not recognise my Huawei 3g usb modem. itried to install Java bt still it does not although the same modem works with my MacBook pro . any help please

    Hey there mbarikiwa,
    If your iMac still has not recognized the usb modem, I would use the troubleshooting for Yosemite USB issues in the following article:
    OS X Yosemite: If a USB device isn’t working
    If the device is connected to a USB hub: 
    Make sure the device and the hub are the same speed. Connect USB 3.0 SuperSpeed devices to a USB 3.0 SuperSpeed HUB, USB 2.0 Hi-Speed devices to a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed hub, and so on. 
    If the device doesn’t have a power cord and is plugged into another USB device that doesn’t have a power cord: 
    Try plugging the device directly into your computer’s USB port  or into a USB device that does have a power cord. You might need to disconnect and reconnect the other device as well, if it has stopped responding. 
    If you have many devices connected to your Mac: 
    Disconnect all USB devices except the device you’re testing, an Apple keyboard, and an Apple mouse. Make sure that the device is connected directly to the computer, and that any hubs or extension cables are disconnected. If you can use the device now, the problem may be with one of the other USB devices or hubs you had connected to your computer. Try reconnecting them, one by one, to your computer. When you find the device causing the problem, review its documentation for further troubleshooting steps. 
    Verify that the device appears in System Information: 
    Choose Apple menu > About This Mac. In the window that appears, click Overview, then click the System Report button to open System Information. 
    In the window that appears, see if the USB device is listed below Hardware in the Contents list. If the device appears but does not work, review the device’s documentation for further troubleshooting steps. 
    Restart apps: 
    Quit and restart any apps that use the device. 
    Restart your Mac: 
    Choose Apple menu > Restart.
    Check your device’s USB connection
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Setting up D-Link DIR-615 wireless N router with a macbook pro

    Hello all.
    I am trying to setup a D-Link DIR-615 wireless N router with my macbook pro. I got the router, opened it, put in the startup CD, and nothing works.
    I went to the D-Link site and it says that the CD is not compatible with mac's, but to look on pages 10-15 in the user manual ( on the CD), which I did and found nothing related to setting up the router on my mac.
    So I'm at the very beginning (putting in the initial CD) of setting this up, and wondering how to do it. Can anyone guide me through it or point me to a thread or online description of how it's done. I have very little computer background but I can pick it up decently when I have to, so please help as I will be very grateful. Thanks,
    Jonathan

    Unfortunately as with most routers it will be a manual affair that is quite involved. The first thing is to connect to the router over ethernet, so you should connect the cable supplied between the computer and the router and turn the router on. Go to System Preferences and open the Network panel, make sure the DCHP setting is automatic, you should have a connection if it is already on auto, there will be numbers in all the boxes when connected. In the documentation for the router you should find an IP address for the web interface along the lines of 192.168.0.1 (this seems to be the correct one for D-Link), open Safari (or another browser if you want)put this number in the address bar and press return. There will probably be a request for password at this stage, this will be in the documentation or on the bottom of the router, fill it in and you will get to the web interface. You should then be able to follow the instructions in the router documentation to set it up. It should be fairly easy through the basic setup procedure as long as you know your internet settings.
