Howdy.

Difficult to troubleshoot.

Question. Do you have any cordless phones in your house? Not cell
phones but cordless phones running on the 2.4 GHz frequency?

If so, then the 2.4 GHz frequency can interrupt WiFi service and so can
some other devices like baby room monitors, etc. There are cordless
phones that use the 5.8 GHz frequency that won't interrupt WiFi.

One way to find out is to bypass the Apple AirPort base station.
Disconnect it and turn it off. Then run an Ethernet cable from your
Mac to the ATT DSL device and connect by wire and then test. If things
work normally, then it's a good indication that there is an issue with
the AirPort Base Station or with the WiFi signal or interruption of it
in your house.

Don't forget, SJ's biographer will be doing a piece on 60 Minutes tonight.
The national news during the past couple of nights seem to indicate it will
be the start of an 'earth shattering' experience!

Is that sarcasm or not? No smiley makes me confused as to the veracity
of that statement. Will it or won't it be?

Oh yes, he will indeed be on the show tonight. Apparently, all the
major networks were able to buy a copy of the biography on Friday. It
led to many news reports about it as well as the biographer being
interviewed in one of the segments for 60 Minutes tonight.

Jobs had some scathing comments about Bill Gates, Google, among others.
Having followed Apple and Jobs for many years, I suspected that what he
said is and was the truth.
