I had a Lynksis wireless hub and it sucked...it was a "B" model....constant drops and spotty connectivity....gave it the float test and now I have a "G" set up.....gives me an "Excellent" reading but only 54 Mbps....then it drops....then comes back up....
My hard cable gives 100Mbps..... I have turned off all the remote phones....nothing changes..... Is there some kind of monitor that can read interfernce on the frequencies that it transmits on? |

I had the same thing early last year.
I run WPA with no issues now. SEE: Feds Hack Wireless Network in 3 Minutes on slashdot.org today Just check the basics first. Upgrade to latest router firmware Upgrade laptop to latest firmware Upgrade OS to latest patch (XP Service Pack 2 makes a huge difference on wireless) (my longest range so far is 120 yards at work (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) ) -Rich Hilgersom |
