sorry
Hi there, please bare with me,
I've set up my wireless network like this:
One comp upstairs, another downstairs. The one downstairs is directly
connected to the internet through my adsl speedtouch modem. I have
installed a belkin wireless Network card into this downstairs machine.
Upstairs I have installed a belkin ethernet card and connected that via
CAT5 crossover cables to a Belkin Access Point that is also upstairs. The
computer upstairs connects to the internet by using the downstairs computer
as a gateway.
Now the signal between the two computers (access point and wireless card)
is very weak and unstable - keeps disconnecting. Even tho the two computers
are less than 20ft apart from each other. (Ones upstairs the other one is
almost directly below). As a result the computer upstairs keeps getting
disconnected to the internet.
Now, is there anyway of boosting the signal between the access point and
the wireless card? Because there is no option of moving either computers
:/
I basically need the signal to be constant and at least at 40%.
The access point is set at channel 6 at the moment.
Sorry for the long post, but I thought the more information you had the
easier it would be for anyone to help me
