|  wrt54g signal strength degrade trains down
Hi
can anyone suggest what to do. i have problems with my new wrt54g. only on the wireless side. i have a network and the lan is fine. speed is brilliant.
i am using a dell laptop (win xp) with the wpc54g pci card. the signal strength seems to start at 54m then drops within a short while to 1mps and at times drops out.
i have replaced the unit some 4 months ago. the orignal unit had a range of 40 mtrs. since then have upgraded the firmware on rtr and pci card. tried adjusting channels one by one. as the signal strenth is terrible. even within 4 or 5 mtrs and behind a wooden cuboard. the signal drops as normal.
i have searched linksys sites and tried most things. is there anything else to try? i wonder if linksys is reducing the quality. to make people purchase new s products or stronger ariels???
regards
Vinny |
