So I'm really trying to figure out why I can't get any decent wifi (2.4 ghz) in my house. Historically, the lighthshow has often knocked out my DSL model DURING the show, but never outside of the show hours.
And prior to me starting the massive setup ... I did have decent wifi in the house ... even though the unit was in the basement.
This year, the modem is staying stable, and wired connections fine ... but my wifi signal is pathetic ... either no connect or very slow (modem like speed at best).
So I've turned off the lynx wireless --- no effect. Turned off all cordless phones -- no help. Turned off wireless keyboards --- no help.
It does almost seem that my problems possibly stem from all of the cords attached to the outside of the house, but most are not pulling any amps during the day ... so still not sure if just the extension cords creates a source of rf noise or what?
SO I moved my dsl modem and intergrated wifi into my office ... and my signal is still lousy. I tried about wifi unit and also terrible connection and speed.
So at this point I don't know what on earth the source of the rf noise is ... but its also reduced my garage door range to like 4' before you get to the door ... and used to work about 1/2 block away. Very bizzare.
Any ideas or experiences that could be helpful here?
I"m also thinking about just getting a better wifi unit thats not attached to the DSL modem. SOmething which is dual band, so hopefully maybe I have a better chance with either band? You are not allowed to view links.
