We operate a hotel in the north of Scotland we recently have wireless being
installed into the hotel although the Desktop PC's cabled directly into the
router which works fine, there appears to be a problem with interference
within the hotel with the Wireless Signal from the router.
We have changed the router several times and although the other systems in
the hotel connect to the network wirelessly for around five minutes then
the signal drops we cannot understand why or what is interfering with the
setup. Due to the hotel being over three floors we installed a range
extender which correctly says connected and is boosting the signal to and
from the main hub.
Apart from this we have noticed that when the router is replaced each time
the old one remains in the available networks for the wireless connections,
sometime with full bars on the signal and sometimes without security
enabled even though the router says that the security is enabled on the
router setup screens.
The only thing that has changed in the building recently before everything
went wrong with the wireless is the TV Ariel’s on the roof were switched on
as they was not on before although we have tried switching the boxes off we
still feel that they will still be broadcasting some sort of signal through
them
Do you have any ideas on what we can try next?
We have also gone as far as changing the router channels and Ghz but still
problem appears.
P.S. The router used that all do the same thing as above are BT and BelkinRouters we are currently using a Belkin Router.
