    Desktop PC wireless card changing between 2 routers (Windows 7)

    Someone Somewhere: "Nothing, sorry. Only thing is to set the slow WAP to a different SSID, or to run ethernet around. Other possibility is to see if your main WAP can do dual band operation." I forgot entirely that you had posted about the recommendation of changing SSIDs. Sounds like a...

    Desktop PC wireless card changing between 2 routers (Windows 7)

    Update. After setting up the TP-Link TL-WR841N router in our family room, which has WDS enabled, I am getting pretty good signals and speed throughout the rest of our home that originally had slow speeds! Of course with WDS enabled, our 25-30mbps download speeds are cut in half, but the Wi-Fi...

    OK. Thanks for your help and quick responses, even just your last one was within 8 minutes! I will keep looking however. I still have to try and set up my new TP-Link TL-WR841N router that I just received by Newegg. Maybe I can use wireless repeater function to connect to the 2nd Access Point...

    Not working! While it seemed that this was working throughout the day, the Wi-Fi signal is now down to 3 bars again with a slow 5mb down. Any other suggestions under Device Manager? Under Advanced properties includes: Adhoc support 802.11n, Country Region (2.4GHz) and (5GHz), IEEE802.11h...

    Sure I will click the button soon. I notice throughout the day when the router changes. I'm always in and out of my room from college and other stuff. This seems like a worthy solution. I have high hopes! I did a bunch of research for routers and using them as Access Points. I have them using...

    The faster router I want to connect to is probably just 10 ft closer than the slower AP router. All my routers are Netgear wireless N 2.4GHz 300mbps. But, yes my Ethernet port works of course. I have used that since 2008 when I built the custom Desktop PC. I always wanted a wireless card to...

    OK. Device Manager has the wireless card and in the Advanced Settings has a Roaming Sensitivity property that goes from Lowest to Highest, or Disable altogether. It appears that it was on Low, so I changed it to Disabled. That is most likely what you were referring to. This has to be a good...

    Thanks for reply! Do you mean in the Device Manager for the wireless driver? Otherwise I am not sure how to access the wireless driver on Windows 7. The wireless card has an optional Ralink software to configure wireless settings, but nothing that would tell the wireless card to stick to one...

    Hi Forum. I am new here. I am trying to set up a wireless network throughout our home, but one issue is bothering me more than any other right now. ---I recently purchased a wireless 802.11N Rosewill PCI wireless card for my Desktop PC. It works great! Except for when using Windows 7, I will...
