Hi all
I'm sending this over my parents' new wireless network at present. They
had broadband but two PCs at opposite ends of a largeish house, so this
seemed simpler than cabling the place up :-)
However, we've got a slightly odd problem here. Mum's machine is running
fine, connects at 11MB/s. My laptop, sitting in Dad's study, is coming
up at 5.5MB/s - quite good enough for me. His machine keeps dropping
back to 1MB/s.
We know the signal strength isn't fantastic in this bit of the house,
it's an extension so has a former external wall in the middle and the
router's already in as good a place as it can be. Is there anything
other than signal strength we need to check for this though?
Thanks,
Greg
