The widget reports that there's an error -- no AirPort networks are found. My AirPort Extreme is less than ten feet from where my PowerBook G4 sits on my desk.

Specs: 1.33 GHz; AirPort Extreme Card, Firmware Version 404.2; AirPort Extreme base station, version 5.7, 40 bit WEP network.

Air Traffic Control found my network without a hitch.

1.1 is better, but not quite there yet - DonSL777

Version 1.1 is a bit improved ... the widget found my network for about five seconds, then it disappeared from the list. Wireless Grapher and AirTrafficControl both show a maintained network connection of high quality.

I thought that perhaps I wasn't setting the scan times to be rapid enough, but even changing the rate to once per second does not correct the disappearing network problem.

I'm looking forward to version 1.2!
