    Hi i got a mac a few weeks ago and sometimes when i try use the internet it just wont work, im using a bt voyager wireless modem, it does up to g wireless, for all my other stuff - laptop/itouch/ps3/xbox its grand but the mac just refuse's to use the web....

    Would a airport extreme help by boosting the signal?? or will two wireless networks mess things up??
    Or would a new n modem be better??

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated...

    Thanks

    More info needed.

    Is the Mini able to see the network and connect successfully? Is the Airport menu showing full signal? Is it dropping this connection, or does the web just stop working?

    Its keeping the signal, and is showing up as full bars on the status bar.... Its working at the moment but in a hour it might just stop but it will show full signal


    Can it happen using up alot of cpu?? i have handbrake ripping my dvd collection all the time, can that affect it?
