is there a problem with my wifi?

[boybi]

ang nakita ko lang is Transmit Power, which is already at the highest setting, walang Ad Hoc.

Fafi, yan na yun.

Fafi, isang solusyon na nakikita ko eh bumili ka ng isang high-power USB adapter gaya nung Hawking HWUG1 o kaya yung Netgear WPN111. Lalakas ang receive strength ng wifi mo sa laptop. Nga lang, medyo mahal yang gadget na yan: mga 5-7K ang pinaka mura.

Yung Hawking, bihira dito yan.

Ah! May isa pa ako solusyon aside from that USB thingy. Kung may PCMCIA slot yang lappy mo Fafy, pwede kang bumile ng wireless-N MIMO adapter. Yung MIMO adapters can increase signal range by as much as 5X, and signal speed by as much as 15x.

[boybi]

pero yung MIMO diba dapat both sides naka MIMO? so kung hindi MIMO yung router or access point, bale wala din.

He he he, oo nga pala.

Don't lose sleep over it ...

Signal strength indicators are not standard among manufacturers. It only shows the relative strength of incoming signals. But the question is, relative to what? Unless they're identical machines, I wouldn't worry.

wireless "N" devices & functionality will only work with "N" type routers. So if you will use a N type device but the wifi router only supports "G", then there is no gain in range nor signal strength.
