| 472603 | 2006-07-22 04:01:00 | How is the AP attached to the "non-laptop"? Is it wired, or wireless? If it's wireless, can it be moved "sideways" or towards the laptop area? Possibly a position in a hallway would allow the signals to get through doors, rather than (not) through walls. Its attached via cable to the dsl modem which is attached via cable to the desktop computer. there is very little room to move here but I do have 30m or so of cat5 so I "could" move the access point a couple rooms over to avoid the fuse box being in the "line of sight" The house is fairly old, 70's I would say, did they use foil-gib back then? |

| 472604 | 2006-07-22 05:51:00 | I remember someone posting here that the best place to put the AP is in the roof space: so if you can drill a hole in the ceiling, and put the AP in the roof space somewhere, it won't be going through the switchboard to get to where you want the signal to go. | somebody (208) | ||
| 472605 | 2006-07-23 00:52:00 | Hi, this depends on your budget these ethernet over power cable do work, takes a bit of fiddling with the right access point and boosts signal as well. I have installed them in many larger double brick homes on Sydney's North Shore. www.netcomm.com.au |
