Hi. I'm at a loss
My Signal is very poor most of the time. Some times it's great but only
lasts for a few minutes than back to poor. So internet browsing is a real
pain coz it cuts out all the time. I've had to disable MSN for a while coz
it's logging on and off like something possessed.
The router is only in the next room linked by cable to a pc and laptops.
Very small hallway between. I have put the router so close to the door if it
gets any closer we may as well be wired.
1/ Is it possible that there could be a fault in the router? The signal was
great at first when we first set it all up, but then started to get 'poor',
and just seems to get worse and worse.
2/ The question I'd also like to know is, would I be able to add an
broadband modem to my PC in order to connect and have efficient access to
the internet directly, but keep the wireless card in order to keep in our
network??
If so how??
Thanx in advance.
