I just moved into an apartment with wireless internet in the complex, but the connection isn't that great. It ic consistantly at 5.5mbps on a good day. Is there anything worth while to buy that will make the connection better or some way ot improve it? 4/4/2006 5:17:23 PM |

Well, if you're only using the wireless network for Internet access, odds are that your throughput on the Internet connection is well below 5.5 Mbps anyway, probably something like 3 Mbps at best. Unless you're interested in actually making use of the local network at speeds faster than that, it's not a problem worth solving, to be honest with you. 4/4/2006 5:19:58 PM |

that's be a great idea if it weren't supposed to be included in the cost of living in my apartment and I weren't in college and making real money 4/4/2006 9:33:55 PM |

Demand a new AP near your building. Repeat as necessary. 4/11/2006 3:23:02 PM |
