After i had updated all of my windows laptops (IBM) are disconnected frequently from the wireless network, I think this update needs to be fixed from apple. I have to downgrade all of my base stations and all works fine again. Any comments are welcome.

Thanks jason, this one is for you renato…

To downgrade to 7.3.2, open the Airport Utility (under Utilities folder.) Highlight the Airport you need to downgrade. In the menu bar select Base Station -> Upload Firmware… A popup appears, from the drop down list select 7.3.2 for the Upload Version and click OK. That’s it. Well, you may have to hard reboot and create a new wireless network.

If 7.3.2 is not there, then press cancel. From the menu bar, while holding the Option key down, select Airport Utility -> Check for Updates… You’ll see a list of all the old and new firmwares which are available. Select the version you want for your Airport (note different Airports have different firmwares.) After downloading 7.3.2 for your Airport, try the upgrade above again.

Everything was fine until I my updated Time Capsule to 7.4.1 and immediately lost all wireless. I reverted back to 7.3.2 and it worked unreliably for a while. Currently, I have to use ethernet cables because the wireless network cannot be found by any computer (Apple or Windows).
