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.

Re: [JAWS-Users] increase wifi strength
Thanks,I may have to use the repeater option. I recycled an older router about 2 months ago.

Re: [JAWS-Users] increase wifi strength
I didn't know that is what those devices are called, but my son had to purchase a wireless device when he lived with me recently to get more stable wifi in my town home and it's single story. 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.

[JAWS-Users] JAWS 15 and Access 2010 Databases Not Reading Button Labels
I realize that the issue with Microsoft access and screen readers is a complex topic. Here's the situation. I have a user who used JAWS 14 with a customized database using Access 2010 and things seemed to read well with no problem. The database opened with a main menu and each item read properly when the tab key was pressed. The user recently was migrated to JAWS 15 and pressing the tab key just says the number of the item, followed by the word button without reading the prompt or label associated with that button. The prompt creator will not work in this database. Using screen refresh and maximizing the window did not help. The user's theme was set to Dell: I changed it to windows Classic and windows 7 Basic but nothing worked. What is now a bit odd is that loading JAWS 14 produces the same results, where the tab key just says button without reading the prompt. We can use the JAWS cursor to read the prompts but I'm curious to know if anyone could suggest other things I could try. Pressing insert-Q verifies that Access 2010 scripts are loaded. Thank you in advance for anything you can suggest.

[JAWS-Users] How to increase WiFi strength
Unfortunately, a WiFi signal repeater will do nothing to strengthen the WiFi signal, it will only take a weak signal and send it farther out. I had this problem where my computer was only about 10 ft. from my router, and only showed to have a signal strength of 35%. I also had another computer in a bedroom, about 30 ft away from my router, and it could not connect at all. The remedy to this problem is to purchase a WiFi range extender or adapter. This nifty little deal will first amplify the signal coming from the router, and then broadcast it over a wide area, usually around a 300 meter radius. This can also be had from Amazon, best buy or most electronics stores. You will want one with a speed of at least 300 Mb/s, and with todays internet speeds, one with a 10/1000 transfer rate. Some good brands are: NetGear, TP Link, Belkin, Linksys,and D-link. An average price for one that will suffice is around $50 to $75, and you can find them on sale in the $40 range for the lower end ones. hth, Mike blindb...@comcast.net For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] increase wifi strength
tom, A WiFi repeater, takes the WiFi signal and sends it out to a further distance than the router can do itself. Unfortunately, it does nothing to strengthen the signal. For this, you need a WiFi range Extender or WiFi adapter. Both of these gadgets will increase the strength of the WiFi signal and send it out to a radius of about 300 meters, giving you a stronger signal at a farther distance. The repeater will only give you the same signal at a farther distance.

Steve, I find m.facebook.com to be pretty straight forward, as well as the regular site. What are you trying to find on the site? You can search for anything that you would like to do or any person that you would like to find. Then you have your links to get to Messages, Notifications, etc. If you can tell more about what it is that you want to do, more help can be provided.

Maybe I will call verizon before I purchase anything. -Original Message- From: Mike Boyd Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2014 11:06 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] How to increase WiFi strength Unfortunately, a WiFi signal repeater will do nothing to strengthen the WiFi signal, it will only take a weak signal and send it farther out. I had this problem where my computer was only about 10 ft. from my router, and only showed to have a signal strength of 35%. I also had another computer in a bedroom, about 30 ft away from my router, and it could not connect at all. The remedy to this problem is to purchase a WiFi range extender or adapter. This nifty little deal will first amplify the signal coming from the router, and then broadcast it over a wide area, usually around a 300 meter radius. This can also be had from Amazon, best buy or most electronics stores. You will want one with a speed of at least 300 Mb/s, and with todays internet speeds, one with a 10/1000 transfer rate. Some good brands are: NetGear, TP Link, Belkin, Linksys,and D-link. An average price for one that will suffice is around $50 to $75, and you can find them on sale in the $40 range for the lower end ones. hth, Mike blindb...@comcast.net For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
