I have a 2011 MacBook Pro. Expensive thingy.
Upgraded to Lion and, boom, Wifi isn't working anymore when there's more than a few meters between the MacBook and the router.
Spent hours researching on the Net. There are lots of similar reports, and threads on the Apple Communities site going back all the way to 2008. It's just that with the release of Lion, the Wifi issues with the MacBook Pro have become much more apparent.
Contacted Apple Care. "Yes sir, we are aware of the problem. The MacBook already had issues when recovering from Sleep modus, but we considered it low priority. ow with Lion there's a flood of reports coming in. There are several things you can try to solve this. Oh, you already tried those.... Yes, you are right, none of them are guaranteed to solve the issue. Be assured that there are several senior engineers working very hard on this issue. No, we have no estimate when it's going to be solved."
Now I have a pricy but severely hampered laptop. So if you thinking of buying a MacBook pro, think again. The same goes for upgrading to Lion if your MacBook's Wifi is working okay now.
PS No problems on my old MacBook white. It's MacBook Pro-related.
