But what really did the trick better was one thing, a netgear router, and I was told that if wifi has to go through a kitchen it will have problems or if a kitchen is nearby. Then in July, I was trying to use my iPad in my living room 30 feet from modem and kitchen is in the middle, this is a wireless modem btw. So I called my cable service and I dunno, she said the channel frequency was at 8 and bumped it up to 11 because stating the IOS devices needing a different strength. Well amazingly enough, it has really made all teh difference, I can go anywhere and have wifi. ----- Original Message ----- From: Lenny McHugh To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2014 2:43 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] increase wifi strength it rebroadcasts the signal with a little more power -----Original Message----- From: Tom Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2014 3:39 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] increase wifi strength what's a wifi repeater? -----Original Message----- From: Lenny McHugh Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2014 2:18 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] increase wifi strength Thanks,I may have to use the repeater option. I recycled an older router about 2 months ago. This router has dual antennas and I do not detect any way to remove them for replacements. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2014 3:04 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] increase wifi strength You have two options, well three: 1. Move the router to a more centrally located spot, if possible. 2. If your router has an external antenna, try replacing it with one that is directional and has higher gain. Unfortunately, some routers have internal antennas and you can't do this. 3. Buy a wifi repeater, or you can use an old router as a repeater if you're technically inclined. If not, look for a wifi repeater on Amazon, Best Buy, etc. You can probably get one for $30 or so. Take my advice, I don't use it anyway.
