I tried backports and it fixes the problem with the connection sometimes taking multiple tries and the problem of the connection just dropping for no apparent reason. However, the signal strength problem remains. I helped a friend by an EeePC because my 1000 works well. But his is a 1000HE and uses different wireless hardware.
Unless someone can tell us that we are missing a setting and this really isn't a bug, we are returning the ASUS netbook and going shopping for a different model in the next couple days. Right now we are looking hard at the MSI Wind netbook and Acer Aspire One models. A side request (only indirectly related to the bug): If anyone knows of the newest models of MSI Wind or Acer Aspire Ones with regard to 9.04 I'd like to know more.
