Well, what's odd is:- - the microwave isn't in use at problem times. - the phone isn't in use at problem times. - the baby monitor isn't on at problem times. - I've even tried turning off the TV etc. - people aren't inbetween/near the router/SB3 at problem times. - the antenna of the router isn't being moved. I really just cannot see what is changing when I seemingly get poor(er) reception? Just seems to come out of the blue. I could try that antenna from Maplins or a Tritium Flatenna (which will look pretty aweful!)? http://www.tritium.co.uk/ But with the problem being so wierd I'm not convinced I'll be solving it! If I sit there with my laptop in NetStumbler would you expect me to see the signal/noise going down when my performance problem happens? -- NeilF ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NeilF's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13059 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38451 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
