    Hello once again...

    This time i have quite weird problem.The thing is that my wireless is working only when signal is low (10-15%) and that sometimes causes me being disconnected.

    i dont understand why on 60-70% my wireless isnt working,only on low signal.

    does anyone knows what could be problem?


    Thanks,



    Dean

    A guess - could it be that you are getting interference from a neighbour's wireless system and poor signal from your own. What you are seeing as good signal is the neighbours wireless network that you can't connect to. When they switch their system off, you see your own signal, but that is weak.

    Try changing the wireless channel (a router setting) and test close to the wireless router.

    I think interference or hardware failure are your most likely culprits. Try changing the channel first.

    look for some changes in the networking structure like added routers or AP's.
