problem using AppleTalk over Airport

Is anyone else having a problem using AppleTalk over Airport? My new PowerBook Pro running 10.4.8 doesn't see printers wirelessly (but does fine with a wired connection). There is another Airport issue: the MacBook Pro won't reconnect automatically (I need to reconnect it manually) to the wireless network when it wakes up from sleep, unlike all my G4-based Macs running 10.3.9 -- but this issue is more in the nuisance category. Believe me, I've checked and rechecked all the settings in the Network pref pane.

With Google's help, I found a couple of Apple "documents" that claim these problems were fixed back in 10.4.6 or 10.4.7, but I'm running 10.4.8 (which is what this Book shipped with -- and yes, I did run software update after I got it...) One Apple document has you delete the networks in the preferred list and then add them again -- I followed that procedure as well, to no avail.

It's not the first time Apple made this type of error with newly released hardware, but it is the first time (in my experience) where an Apple "document" claims the exact problem was fixed in a previous OS update... which leads me to worry they are considering this case "closed" (they shouldn't... it's not...)
