Airport Problem after Leopard Upgrade

Hello,

I am experiencing the following problem :

I have an iMac G5 with Tiger with 3 users, accessing internet via a local WiFi network at home. This network needs a WPA password to access.
The iMac worked perfectly and accessed the net with no issues.

I installed Leopard on the iMac and since then :
- it asks for a WPA password for the local network but does not accept it
even if I know that the password is right
- the airport meter is on "zero"
- I cannot get to internet.

Thank you for your help,

Henri

To fix this you have to do several things:

1. Go to the folder /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ and delete com.apple.airport.preferences.plist (you might need an administrator password).

2. Go to the folder /Library/Preferences/ and delete com.apple.internetconfig.plist & com.apple.internetconfigpriv.plist (you might need an administrator password).

3. Go to /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access and delete the keys for your airport.

Finally if you ANY of these steps immediately RESTART. This is very important.
