ive checked quite a few forums and turns out that they have the same problem as i do. so, theres a weakness in the MacBook Pro, which is it cannot connect to this type of wireless...

I don't get it, which "last update" you meant?
*
the latest AirPort update, it is suppost to help in connecting with the airport extreme or something. before that there was another update which allowed me to connect to my router.

i have another question, since the update allows mac to connect. what about in windows mode? i cant connect.
