    Hi,

    I'm experiencing some rather strange difficulties getting to connect my desktop (XP) and my brand new macbook to my wireless router at the same time.

    While I had no problems connecting both my desktop and my laptop (also XP) at the same time, I can only get my macbook to connect to the router when I switch off my desktop's wireless card and reboot the router.

    Anyone any clues as to what's going on here? I have a Philips modem/router.

    Thanks.
