Since I've bought Lion (mac's update) my interenet connexion is always disconnecting, like almost every hours. What can I do? D:

Why did you get a mac to begin with?

Because they are far superior than any PC. And much much prettier. And I can run windows on mine better than I can on crappy PC hardware :D
This thread isn't about Mac vs. PC, stop spamming.

Let me know if that link doesn't work Slasher.

And Im not being all Apple fanboy. I have owned MANY Windows Desktop PC and 3 PC Laptops.

I just prefer the overall aesthetics and ease of use of a Mac. AND I can play games via Windows on my Mac :) Not bashing anyone here, seriously.

And yeah, Mac are really awesome. So much easy to use, best design and less virus.

^if you buy one drivers all come preinstalled. If you build one 80% come on one disk. :)

Macs are far too expensive. They make you overpay for their hardware and the OS is way too much too. Its just a Linux flavor ya know.

I'm just saying. My girlfriends PC recently crapped out. Kept going into "startup repair" cycle. And wouldn't come out of it. So, I had to reinstall Windows. Lo and behold, I had to track down the drivers for it.

I just like Macs. Sure they cost a lot. But the only problem I've ever had with both of mine is when I purposely edited a major system file and it killed the computer. But even then, I fixed it easily :)

And yeah, I know it's a Linux flavor. but I have the money to spend on them, so it's not really a negative thing for me.

I could probably easily build a machine and throw OSX on it with some work. Right?

I hate Mac vs PC debates. lol I like one thing, you like another.

Do other computers on your network do this too? Does the internet work on them? Could be your ISP.

I don't know if the iMac can "crash" the ENTIRE network. Maybe it can, I don't know/ Try Apple again and tell them everything that is happening. Keep them on the phone while they suggest things and when they dont work, tell them. Do you have a warranty or insurance?

Thanks everyone. I went to the apple store and they told me my modem was too old for Lion. I'll change it and see if it'll work :)
