Kernel Panic help

[jackscoldsweat]

Howdy. I'm getting repeated kernel panics. All with what appears to be the same reason....something about AirPort. Anyone know of a way of finding out more? Like whether it's the card or rather a communication freakout with the router or what?

Here's the kernel panic report. Thanks for any ideas!

kernel panics point to a hardware problem, take it to your nearest Apple Service Centre, (this does not have to be Apple).

kernel panics can often cascade into System Software errors and if the are regular and predictable then its important to get it fixed before you loose important files.
