In my case, everything works just fine when the box is 6 meters away from the AP (including a thick wall in between), but when I move it another 5-6 meters away from the AP, things break down ... I'd expect it to work at longer distances, but well. :-) Greetings, Rafael _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list Bcm43xx-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
