signal drop and goes up
Posted: Mon Apr 02, 2007 2:18 pm
Hi,
For the last six months I have a access point on my second floor and my Dell is connected to a Cantenna, a 12 dbi antenna and the antenna is connected to Engenius Wireless Lan USB adapter with the specs of 200mw amplifier and is then connected to my USB adapter supplying power to the EUB-362 EXT unit. All of a sudden I am losing the signal and my antenna is aimed somewhere on a tripod. I ran TCP/IP Optimizer and I believe I have a good signal. How can I lock on to this signal and know I can keep it rock solid ? At present it is running at 108mbps.
I am not using any routers with my current set up. Is it necessary to use a router the way I have it setup ? I am concerned that routers will not be able to a accept a 200mw amplification of a signal.
I look forward to your suggestions.
Thanks
Arthur
