macbook version 10.6.7 loses wireless connection

Once the connection is lost, it appears that the device is stalled and the system has to be powercycled in order reestablish the wifi connection.

The end user refuses to perform a system cleanup (ie., onyx).

Other than a hardware issue, does anyone have some suggestions?
The connection is stable for about 4 hours after power cycle before dropping again.

Wifi router is OK.  Another macbook connects successfully and doesn't drop connections.

Many Thanks

Apple's early computers ran on a variety of operating systems, including a Pascal version and one based on CP/M, before releasing its ProDOS with the advent of its 16-bit computer. With the release of the Lisa, which had its own OS, Apple and computing entered the graphical age; it was followed by the Macintosh, which offered a series of "System" operating systems. Other Mac operating systems included PowerPC until Apple acquired NeXT and folded it into the Mac OS. Current operating systems for Apple devices are Mac OS-X and iOS.
