Apple Time Capsule & AirPort Base Station Reviewcrap - Version: 7.4.2, 7/2/2009 07:50PM PST

i'd finally gotten my airport setup working perfectly when this &%$#?! update came out. since installing the update, one of the benefits of which is supposedly that it fixes a problem that was causing dropped connections, my connection drops at least once a day and usually more. this sucks big time.

i hope i can down-date.

After updating to 7.4.1 my wireless hp Photosmart 3310 (scanner only) stop communicating with my network. 7.4.2 did not fix this problem. I have to use older 7.3.2 which is working OK but I am bothered with messages about new available update and yellow light.

Apple Time Capsule & AirPort Base Station Commentaryi don't know... - Version: 7.4.2, 6/27/2009 01:28AM PST

i'm seeing weird behaviors with 7.4.2 that i never saw with 7.4.1, like a dropped connection (which 7.4.2 was supposed to *fix,* not introduce) and incredible sloth in connecting to websites and mail and stuff.

is it possible to downgrade?
