yeah, went nuts like the batt indicator is still blinking even it is detact from the macbook and it does not supply any power to the macbook...how old?...maybe 6 mth only...

tinky,
same case wit my mbp...juz realized...
when it goes to sleep...i m disconnected from my network...
but only happens some times...
is this normal?

ok...i dont know if this is the correct solution or not...but it works for me.....u guys (or gals, for that matter) can give it a try...

all these while i was using Channel 6 for my wifi, i changed it to chanel 12 and it never disconnect since then.....signal is very strong also....

once again, i dont know if this will help u ppl, but it certainly solves my problem....heheh

Erm.... is MAC OS slower in file transferring?
Well, i read at other thread that MAC OS is slower when BT-ing ..
And now i am using IRC to dl something, from the same XDCC bot, my PC is able to get like 80Kb/s while on this MB .. it;s getting only 8-9Kb/s

Wonder it is my connection problem or . . .

lokgotz,
I'll try Channel 12 when I get back later - home network's on Channel 11. Will also check out what Channel office network's on cause if it's on the same channels it probably's not the *right* solution *grins*

ed0gawa,
My speed or connection to BT varies - sometimes its better on the Mac sometimes it's better on the PC. As to file transferring from Mac to PC within the same network, er i find it much faster on the Mac - then again, i think speed on this one's pretty much determined by hardware issues such as router, etc etc.

I'll take back my word on slow IRC transfer.....

lol.. got a fast transfer this morning... but... it is funny

Bot A - PC slow, MB fast
Bot B - MB fast, PC slow

but my MB connection with IRC server is very unstable.. d/c often, while my PC is always connected

ed0gawa,
Is ur MB connection unstable only when your PC is connected to the network? Could it be a conflict or some configuration preference on your client?

Er, be glad ur getting slow transfer than NO transfer at all `k?

xandman,
Theoretically, our MB/MBP should be d/c from the network when it goes to bed, but i believe it should also be reconnected automatically when it wakes up.... didn't think it was the fault of my MBP so didn't raise the issue here but will test it a few more times and also check out lokgotz' suggestion and keep all informed when I'm done.

Too bad i'm unable to test it as much on the office network - am almost never away from my 'workstation' for more than 30mins! but at home it's different

Let's just keep each other updated yah?

no one care about my Sudden Motion Sensor thread? T_T
i m so interested in using this features to the MAX...

SanosukeSagara,
You go ahead and maximise usage then let us know the outcome lor. I haven't even had time to set my GUIs and other settings, where got time to check other stuff out for now?

erm...guys..
i have a little problem here.
last night i erase my WinXP partition using bootcamp.
everything looks normal and the partition become 1.

this morning, i try to install WinXP back and do the partition thing.
the Windows XP is already install, but when i try to boot into OS X,
the Kernel Panic came out..

i try to use the Restore DVD (the DVD 1)
hold down the C button when the MacBook restart
but nothing happen..it's just blue screen (before OS X load up completely.)
but when i try to check hardware failure by pressing D, everything is fine.
no hardware failure..

i try to reformat & reinstall the MacBook using restore DVD,
but when i press the C button, its seem that the DVD cannot being read..
anyone?

bro...
i m interested to exploit the SMS too...
but i m still noob in Mac...
so will have to wait a bit la...
and also currently...trying wii-mote...on osx!
hehehhe...i know...kinda lame...but...juz want to c what weird things can the osx handle...=)

sanosuke, i tried that and it freaked the hell out of me when i heard rumours taht if you try to turn your macbook while the harddisk is spinnin,g you might risk of scratching your hdd and end up with lots of badsector or dying harddisk O_o

call me paranoid, but well, lol i dont know

tinkerbel : 1 week they say, haih, probably this saturday will visit them again

edogawa : firewall causing it?portforward?

My MacBook's HDD sometimes make noise when processing. Like old HDD. Anyone face this also? I wonder if I can claim for waranty because of this?

This should be useful for auto reconnect wifi:-

i think u better bring it to check, better be safe than sorry,
after i took my mb for check on isight, they say at first no prob for first 2 day, and the nrealize another new proiblem on 3rd day, some cracking sound when switching on my mb, and this time they'll send it for warranty for even longer period

Already send the MB for waranty claim for 3 times. 1- Logic board problem 2- Hinge at the top cover 3- Trackpad not funtioning and now, HDD problem.. Very tired la of waiting, very bad luck with this MB, never have such experience like this with Mac.. and PC also.

People will laugh at me if they know I already send the MB for waranty 3 times

vandetta,
Let whoever wants to laugh at you laugh - u'll have the last laugh when u finally get ur MB working in perfect order I do suppose u just happen to have gotten a 'bad' MB - it's probably a bad batch - perhaps speak to them and see if they could just replace an entire new unit for ya?

I'm sure Apple will do something, especially since you'd been inconvenienced so many times now

Thanks tinkerbel. But to whom should I speak to?
Because when the third time I want to send my MB to repair, already ask for new unit but they say cannot because only a part is broken and they'll replace only that part.
It is Axis Computer, PJ. But good and fast service tough.
Then I call the operator and she also said Apple will only repair or replace broken part only.
I'm only one of many many many more Mac user in M'sia, very tiny one.
I think if Tan Sri Limkokwing call just to report the OS need to be formatted, they must've replace it with new unit in 24 hours.
Haih.. Ya it's the first batch, got it after a month announced.

vandetta,
Perhaps write an official letter and direct straight to Apple office in Malaysia and CC it to their USA counterpart and hope that their customer service is good I don't deal with Apple so i'm unable to assist you further.

Or, if you really think Tan Sri Lim Kok Wing be able to get a replacement immediately, you can either speak with him or just use his name?

Thanks for your advice. Regarding Tan Sri LKW, of course he'll able to get a replacement immediately. He's the biggest Apple customer in M'sia
