For a while now my SR MBP has been randomly dropping out when I visit websites, pages refuse to load and in Safari I get "you are not connected to the internet" and in Firefox I get the equivalent, after a while it will come back. Adium stays connected, I know this because I still see people sign on, chat, etc.

Today it has been happening non-stop, I was lucky to get this far to post it.

I have all updates, my modem is a Netgear DG834 connected to a Vista PC, MBP is wireless.
 
Apparenty this is an issue with 10.4.10. Wifi (Airport), 10.4.10 and macbooks (/pro) are a terrible mixture. I got my macbook a few days ago (8?) and i cannot connect to my router anymore. Keep getting errors. 10.4.9 users don't seem to have this problem. I phoned apple and didnt get an solution. I'm tempted to head to my local Apple store and get a new macbook.

Either way head on to http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/ and tell the problem! Soooo many people want a fix for this. If you head onto Apples forums http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1171 you can clearly see many people having issues.
