I just installed a wireless netork for a friend
using the Linksys Speed Booster router. However, my
friend's house has a lot of walls. How can I
increase the range of the wireless devise?
Thanks,
JP

Sam,
Thanks for the reply. The distance is 60 ft as
most but my friend has 2 walls in between, the
doors are quite wide.
What do think if I change the channel in the
router?
I've heard that there is a new model for this
booster system.
Thanks,
Duke |

well duke,
what i suggest you is to better get an access
point.......
because changing the channels in the router will
help you in somewat way...
if the channel is 6 at present better change it
to 11...
the default channel on which the linksys wireless
router works is channel 6....
and buying an access point will really help you
in boosting up the signals////
rather you can make wireless connection between the
router & access point...
i will let you know the settings which have to
be made in access point....once you get it...
better buy for linksys ...

To increase wireless internet signal, use a Wireless
Signal Booster. I found one that is really
cool and easy to use. Check it out at
www.emergingwifi.com and look for the BA24.
I use it on my Linksys BEFW11S4, and it
increased my coverage bubble from about 30 ft. to
about 300 ft. in a residential home setting. |
