Yeah, I'd look into any/all potential networking & WiFi troubleshooting. It could be receiving your WiFi at 85% but may also be getting clobbered by other signals.
Some very basic WiFi tweaks (1-5 require admin access to your router to try these simple changes): 1. use a unique SSID name (name of your network/router) 2. if using a G WiFi: set WiFi to G only (turns off a & b modes) 3. if using an N WiFi: set to G Compatibility mode (if using G devices) 4. change the broadcast channel to the least used channel near you 5. choose only channels 1 or 6 or 11 (or 13 if available) 6. router and WiFi antenna orientation adjustments can help signal strength 7. keep router away from other electronic devices (cordless phones, ISP modem, computers) 8. reboot WiFi router every once in a while (once a month is usually sufficient) If your WiFi network card software already gives the ch numbers and the signal strength of all nearby networks, that's all you need. But there are free programs like NetStumbler if needed. -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89918 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
