I have a very weak connection in my room, but while my iPod touch 2G can connect to it and at least work, my macbook air can't even connect to it(it can see it but it can't join it, it always says timed out or smth)
Is it normal?
If not, how can i fix or improve it?

Thanks in advance!

Has it been strong before or has it always been weak? I have just notice that sometime when I wake my Air from closed sleep that it will have a weak WiFi connection. I turn Airport off and then turn it back on and it goes to full signal. Maybe try that.
