for some reason i can't connect my macbook pro to my wifi under leopard at home, but was able to do so under bootcamp windows xp. all my other computers are able to connect the same wifi as well. is there any way i can reset the wifi in mac?
ps. it can connect to any other wifi with leopard, just not at home, i even reseted my router

it appears to be a fairly common issue
check out the apple discussions page
the top 5 posts under the networking section of the macbook pro talk about this issue
thus far, no solutions have been offered yet -
Which router are you trying to connect to? Chances are you might have to disable IPv6 in your Network prefs. I'm assuming you have DHCP enabled?

You can also try manually setting an IP address for the airport on you mbp, this sometimes helps. You will need to know what the DHCP range for your router is first, then choose an address outside that range, eg 192.168.1.0>100 range for router then choose say .101 for mbp. Then manually set the dns servers and subnet mask.
other options are to first remove all security and mac filtering then add things back one at a time.
good luck
