Problems with D-Link 1310

[ChickenSwartz]

I just recently bought a D-Link 1310 wireless router.

Set it up with WPA, MAC filtering, suppressed SSID broadcast.

I am using my MBP wirelessly with it, a Windows computer wired.

After a while, maybe after I get home from school (where I use wireless), I can't connect to the my home wireless network. It doesn't show up. If I go onto the wired computer and change something (so far I have been changing network name and security) and it will connect no problem.

So I assume this might have something to do with my IP lease timing out. But I don't know how to fix it.

Of course it won't show up

If SSID broadcast is supressed, it doesn' show up automatically.
Either manually specifying SSID from your Mac or enabling SSID broadcast in your router configuration tool will solve the problem.

I have it set as a preferred network, so it should connect automatically.
