I have a Macbook Pro and use it mainly wireless - unless doing large
file movement, then I connect via copper.

Until recently I had no problems with my wLan and neither had other
people using my wireless network. I then started to get disconnections
on my macbook - pretty regular and also noted the signal had gone down
to almost nothing (was about 27% where I normally use it in the bedroom
(Wireless router is downstairs).

It turned out to be an X-Pad - for those of you who don't know, it is
for sitting your notebook on so that you can use it on your knee without
getting burnt legs. It's properties according to the manufacturers is to
dissapate heat.

Does a great job, but also causes wireless signal loss - whatever is in
the 'heat' pads. Strange thing it does not have the same effect on my
wifes Toshiba??
