Ah so you're running a wireless access point; my setup is the straight
wrt54gl box. And I ask because I've been having to do the ole 30-30-30
on the router every single day to keep a signal. My suspicion is it's
the source (bomcast) and its daily throttle drop-out. The primary is a
netgear -g (host is kool with this; we're neighbors).
My thought was that once the secondary (my) router had been properly
configured, all it should take to get back a lost signal is just reboot
the router--but I have to start from scratch each time. Do it
practically in my sleep so it's no biggy--it just doesn't make sense
that the simple reboot doesn't do the trick.
You've no doubt found this forum and the peacock thread as useful as I:
http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=39529. That kat donny is a
wonder.
And that's kool you've got repeater bridge working; so far client bridge
is the only setup I've been able successfully to run. Perhaps it's that
I've tried no other firmware than the one the router came flashed with,
V24. Sounds like you're running one of the newer sets. From what I've
read wireless connections to repeater bridge do suffer considerable
bandwidth reduction so maybe 20% is normal?
If I may bug you further, is your antennae indoors? I'm certain I could
improve my signal if I mounted mine outdoors--it wouldn't have to pass
through so many walls--but I've been too lazy to weatherize it.
As for setting up my router as a mini-pc--perhaps in one of those
parallel universes I keep reading about, one where there are more than
just 24 hours in a day.
