One MacBook can surf, the other can't?


odd problem, apple seems unable/unwilling help.

bought airport extreme few weeks ago. wireless thing nicely speed, shares printer , external hdd. peachy.

1 glitch, though: wife , have matching macbooks. can surfing along fine, until decides turn on macbook , online. when happens, though i'm still connected wirelessly airport extreme, internet connection fails.

if go network preferences , go through "assist me..." dialog, internet work again... until wife decides load page online, i'm off again.

airport extreme set allow dhcp , share ip address. apple support folks on phone said don't understand problem, because knew do. i've reset airport dozen times.

wonder if it's wrong macbook. mean, use around 15-16 hours per day (purchased in january), airport receiver have crapped out or something? computer, lightly used maybe hour day, connects web perfectly.

appreciated!
 

i had similar problem wife's new macbook got. gateway surf no problem macbook couldn't, unless reset could, half-way load pages. ended having manually add dns servers of our isp wireless connection , solved problem. not sure if work yours, might check out.
