I went to my SB3 and performed the firmware update. I then looked at the signal strength, which started at 60%, but a few seconds later it dropped to 12% and then eventually sat at 0%.
I moved the SB3 into the lounge, where my existing SB2 is located, and compared the signal strengths (powering up only one box on at a time). My SB2 signal strength is a constant 80%. My SB3 signal strength initially started at 60%, but then dropped to 45% and then fluctuated between 25% and 45%. Doesn't look good :( Is there any chance it could just be a loose wifi card or aerial inside, or is it likely to be a faulty card that needs replacing?
