Just bought my new MBA 13" with full of expectation and excitement, but end up is a disappointment. I get the mac from the reseller, with 10.7.2 lion update, when i get back to home, i found that my wireless network is not accessible, with "connection timeout" error. The mac is the only device which is not accessible to the network, other PC and even iphone work perfectly.
Call up the reseller, reseller mention that the mac is always having problem with WEP security key. I end up changing my router to better one with WPA or WPA2 security key support. the result, it fail too. and it is the only device that not accessible to the wireless network. I am not sure on what is happening with my mac, it is still a clean one. I have spend half day fixing this, hope will get a solution on this as soon as possible. Any one of you guys experience this before ?

Any one of you guys experience this before ? I guess it couldn't be "mac is always having problem with WEP security key". Have you tried to Diagnostics the network?

Any one of you guys experience this before ? bro just curious, is this your first mac? do you have this problem with your other macs? i used to experience this problem. and i thought there was something wrong with my mac. all i did was just to reset the modem/router. my problem went away after that. every now and again, i do experience 'connection time out' problem but reseting the modem/router works. if that doesnt work, its probably the WEP/WAP compatibility. one of my friend had that issue, forgotten how he fixed it. good luck.

Call the Apple helpdesk, believe me they are extremely friendly. Never experienced any of your problems myself, but read about similar problems alot.
Hopefully Apple can sort you out.
