Hi Don,
I'm in my husbands office where the router is and just got a signal of minus 37.

Stacey,

That's not a bad reading, probably in the middle somewhere of the
range. But, as I said, the reading really only gives you a relative indication of your signal
strength.

The router is in my husbands office which isn't too far away.

Hi Stacey,

Well, guess I'm anyone.  <grin

Go to the options menu, connectivity, andpress a for active
connection details.  Scroll through the details and you will see
the signal strength.

It will appear as a minus number such as -30 or whatever the
strength.

The lower the number, the stronger the signal is.  The best
numbers seem to be around -27 or -30 and a connection can still
work with a number as high as -
75 in some cases.  Usually if it's -60 or less, the signal is
going to be pretty good.

It's not an exact indication of signal strength and it's only
relative.  So you should experiment with checking the signal
strength at different distances from the
router to see what the acceptable number range for that
connection is.

Don't worry if the number seems to jump around a bit as normally
a small change in the number is quite normal.

Don

Jim or anyone,
Is there a way that you can check the strength of your wireless
connection??
I've not had any trouble so far but just wondered.

Nancy,

The cutting out of the audio stream is very normal depending on
your
connection with DSL, Landline or Ethernet.  Sometimes the audio
stream has
to catch up with itself thus it occasionally cuts out.  Much
depends on the
quality of your connection.  There is a buffering process which
takes place
with audio streaming.  This audio stream is saved ahead of time
so if there
is a problem, hopefully you won't notice it.  Unfortunately, one
does
encounter occasional problems though.

I'd recommend you try www.billsparks.org.  That site has many
fine oldies
stations and you can actually find that category.

Enter with Dots 4, 6 turns up the volume in your M-power and dots
1, 3 with
enter turns the volume down.  I'd say you are doing quite well
thus far.

Jim Aldrich

Hi.  I've had my m-power for about a month now, and I've never
tried audio
streaming until tonight.  I went to: interactiveacbradioorg,
went to
listen in Winamp and entered.  It seemed to automatically play
with the
media center, and I tried to read through the manual about audio
streaming
but couldn't find much about it.  I didn't log on, just went to
"listen
with winamp and entered.  Even with my over-the-ear headphones,
I heard
some talking, some music, but it would cut in and out.  What am
I doing
wrong? How can I get a clear, continuous, nice audio sound with
this? I'm
excited, but I need specific steps (maybe using the example of
the
Interactive stream with Acb radio) until I get the hang of it.
It sounded
like it could be very exciting, and I kept hitting enter with
dots 4-6
chord, but it was louder with turning up the speech.  Don't just
give me
the section of the manual to read, but give me some specific
steps for
this example to make it work, and I'll practice, practice,
practice.
Thanks very much for any information to make this enjoyable for
myself and
others.
Nancy I have a transplanted 18-35ll braille keyboard.  I love
oldies, and
I'm embarrassed that I can't make it work without it cutting in
and out.
Nancy
