Local area networking via ethernet issues can be solved using Netgear
senders working through house wiring to connect to the router without
using airport or the router's wireless connection. Each sender as I
call it is a NETGEAR Powerline AV+ 200 Adapter that has standard 3

Thought about that, but the ethernet cable connecting the modem to the
router ends on the second floor and is fixed (through walls and stuff)
because we used to only have 1 computer connected directly to the
modem (imagine that!).
I'll try and test it, though, to see if it is the problem. If so, I

I've read about ethernet via powerlines, but I'm not sure on how it
works exactly. Do I need a free ethernetport on the router? Or is it
like a wireless repeater?

As a test take a 10 ft (or 1 meter) of wire and wrap 2 - 3 inches (7 - 8

I've swapped the antenna, from a spare G4 Yikes I have. Placed the QS
in the same spot: still only one bar in the Airport icon. Placed the
QS in another spot: still only one bar. Placed it upstairs, right next
to the Extreme Base: one bar all the way.

Thanks everyone, for all suggestions!
I've just replaced the G4 QS with my G4 GE, moving the Airportcard
with it. I get full reception on this machine, positioned in the exact
same place as the G4 QS would be. I think I'm going to try and swap
the antenna of the QS to see if it makes any differenc

Hi Group. This ethernet issue can be solved using Netgear equipment
working through house wiring. I've had it set up in two houses & it
works great. One sender is plugged into the living room connected
through Ethernet to my laptop. The other sender is plugged in ne

Not if poor reception is limiting the 802.11b speed. You should be able to get

A USB 2 PCI card would be a good investment for an old QS because

Hello everyone.
Thank you for the suggestions so far!
I notice now that I forgot to mention that the QS itself is on the
first floor. So the setup is:
Third floor: eMac @ full reception
Second floor: Airport base
First floor: G4 QS.
I've checked the antenna again, but it is connected and only g

It's worth trying the airport card elsewhere, as you describe...

Hi all!
I've recently acquired an Airport card to fit inside my G4 QS (the
2002 model). It works fine, meaning it connects to the Extreme base
station and gets me on the internet.
The problem is the reception: I have my Airport Extreme base station
set up on the second of 3 floors. My eMac on the
