Rob "Pringles Can" Flickenger and others at the O'Reilly OS X con have tracked
down the cause of the annoying flakiness in the wireless network here -- every
20 or 30 seconds, you start getting "connection refused" messages from your
browser and other net-utilities.
It turns out that running the great network-spy app Etherpeg[1] (or other
"promiscuous" network sniffers) and the built-in firewall in OS X at the same
time causes your computer to begin intercepting every packet sent out on your
segment of the wireless network and respond to it with a "rejected" message.
So today, Rob (and everyone else who knows about this) is going to run around
and tell people running Etherpeg to _turn off the firewall_ (and vice-versa).
Ah, fickle networking, you are such a stern mistress! Link[2] Don't do the
brown WiFi, the brown WiFi is BAD (_Thanks, Rob!_)
