I didn't know who to email about this in CNS so forgive this post if
it should go elsewhere. If anyone knows who I should direct this,
please let me know, but another reason for posting this is to find
out if others are experiencing the same problem.

We've had 3 iBooks with the Airport Extreme card both pre-installed
and manually installed where they were not able see Airbears in
Tolman Hall. We even tested on the second floor where there are 2
antennas (one in 2515 and one in the Ed-Psych Library) and Airbears
was not detected. On one of the iBooks, we did test the card by
creating a network on an iMac that we have in a lab here that has an
older Airport card and was connecting wirelessly. That iMac was
detected by the iBook. We also put the laptop on the same table that
the iMac with the older Airport card was on and there was no signal
to the iBook, but the iMac was detecting both Airbears and another
wireless network.

Does anyone know if there is a compatibility/connectivity issue with
the Airport Extreme cards and Airbears? Or has anyone experienced
similar problems as well?

Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Beth
