RE: Netgear Access Point Range



Hmm..... might give it a go.
I put it where it is because
a) It is node 0
b) It is central to the house.
 
It could go pretty much anywhere in the house (as long as the sprogs can't reach it & SWMBO approves) but that is the most central location.
 
If I put it in my office upstairs, it is off to one side of the house, so I would probably suffer downstairs in the lounge on the other side of the house.
 
According to the manual, the 'direction; of the ariels is important - but they are just two sticks basically, so I don't know quite what 'direction' they should be facing.
If they were little Yagis or something then fair ehough - they have a front and a back that you can point.
What can I do with a stick apart from have it vertical or horizontal?

Realise that.
 
Just pointing out that with AP upstairs and in a central position I get full coverage, worth a try re-positioning yours.

My WAP11 is in my study at about waist height.  The study is on the upstairs floor and pretty central in the house.  With the LinkSys WPC11 I was losing signal completely just 2 rooms away from the AP.  With the Lucent card I can get coverage EVERYWHERE in my house.
