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

^ and then your internet will never work because you'll never have the right drivers...
Try: [Only registered and activated users can see links]
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.
this happened with my mom's imac, she took it in and there was a faulty part, they replaced the entire computer

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 :)
