Got a fan for the router yet?
Got a fan for the router yet?
Try every channel to see what one works best - as changing channel seems to have helped. This implies interference was the cause of the problem.
Get a USB wifi adapter then you can move it around to find the best signal. Higher signal/noise ratio = less dropouts.
Some routers have the wifi on a daughterboard. These can slip lose and cause random disconnection. Opening up the router And checking its all well-seated can solve this.
I'm using a Belkin one. Really cheap it is. When I was in the hospital the built in WIFI got 1 bar signal and used to drop out, drop packets and slowly load web pages whilst the Belkin one I had on a usb extension stuck upside down like a bat from a steel beam (held with scotch) - got 5 bars and never dropped out.
It's a FD7050 wireless-G adapter and costs aout $60 in the UK.
