10.4: A possible fix for wireless connection problems
Authored by: Spartacus on Aug 18, '05 11:42:03AM
I once had to trash file /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist. Another time it didn't help so I dug a bit and wrote an AppleScript to launch with LaunchBar that does only one thing:
do shell script "/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Resources/airport -a"
It tells AirPort to automatically connect to the preferred network as it should do when waking up from sleep. I used this script once and then never had to again. Maybe it reset something that had to be or it's just Murphy having fun.
