is there a problem with my wifi?

[swimstroke]

Ganyan din sakin, pero iBook < desktop.

Wala namang problema. Hindi naman nagdrodrop yung connection, hindi mahirap kumonek at tama naman yung speed na nakukuha. :D

nakaka connect naman ako, yung signal bar lang ang problema. bakit kaya mas mahina ang dating sa compaq compared sa toshiba?

[nicolodeon]

Dunno. Yung laptop kong gamit ngayon (Compaq), mahina signal bar pero so far, consisent ang connectivity ko.

so mukhang common lang talaga sa compaq yung mahina ang signal bar.

adjust the Wireless adapter settings. Pwede mo i-adjust kung gusto mo mas malakas ang paghanap at pagsagap nya ng signal but it might lessen your batt life by 10mins-20mins siguro kung naka-todo.

Fafi, AFAIK hinde na-aadjust yung receiving strength ng wifi receiver sa mga laptops. Automatic yan, depende sa strength ng bato ng transmitter, distance from transmitter, yung mga obstructions sa signal, kung saan ka naka pwesto, etc.

i agree with this.kasi dapat talga malakas ang signal nya from the transmitter at tsaka dapat malapit sa cell site.

Any other wireless equipment near your laptop usually interfer with you wifi like cordless phone or cell phone.

check mo rin kung yung driver ng wifi mo tama sa pc mo baka kailangan mo lang noong recommended ng hp na driver... sometimes it helps, but sometimes its useless.

here's a link from hp drivers of your laptop if your using winxp..

how will i do that?

Fafi, usually naka default na sa highest setting yan pero here are the steps.

1. Go to Control Panel
2. Click the System icon, then open the Hardware tab.
3. Select Device Manager
4. Inside the DM window, open the Network Adapter sub-menu.
5. Locate your wireless adapter
6. Right click the adapter then select Properties
7. Under properties, click the Advanced tab.
8. Look for the Ad Hoc Transmit Power option. It should have a default slider setting of highest.

If the transmit power option is set to the highest mode, then your adapter is functioning at "full strength" already.
