I am trying to get my wireless network to include my laptop. I have tried
two different adapters with about the same results, a weak signal.
First off which adapter is more likely to give me a better signal, a
wireless pc card or a usb adapter?
Secondly, when I move my laptop closer to my router I get a strong signal
but when I am just a couple of rooms away I get a very weak signal, what
can I
do to get a stronger signal when I am two rooms away from my router?
Thanks, Jerry.
It depends on your wireless router on whether you can attach different
antennas to it to broadcast a stronger signal. It also helps to have it
placed high and in a central location. It depends on what's in the walls,
too. Metal, electric lines, etc. can all cause interference and degrade the
signal. A low signal doesn't necessarily mean you can't connect. Do you have
a problem getting a connection or are you just fretting about a low signal?
