Hi
A housemate of mine got IBB broadband recently and i got a wireless router so i could share the connection. this is the router:
D-Link DI-524 802.11g/b WiFi Wireless Router
Problem is the connection comes and goes and i only ever get "very low" signal strength! :mad: The router is in his room just the other side of a thin wall!
Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions as regards setup to fix this problem? The router has a spec which is effective to over 100feet i think, but it doesnt work a few metres away in the living room!
Im in Clonskeagh , just above UCD. Just wondering what mast we are connected to?
Im a bit stuck and frustrated here, any help would be great!
thanks

There could be problems with interference, try changing the channel the AP transmits on. This may help, also try repositioning the ap away from the wall.
