Power of the weak signal with my wrt54g

My wireless router has been uneven, since my cable company installed a new internet cable modem.  I powercycled several times, downloaded the new firmware, rebooted and still have problems.  Lately when I finally get on the internet with a wireless device, the signal is very weak.  It is low on my iphone on my Mac laptop and also on my Samsung Bluray player.  Lately a window never ceases to appear when I'm watching netflix who says my bandwidth is too low, even if he works very well for 2 months.  Is my router obsolete?

No, it is recommended to have security enabled. Does affect your signal strength when you activated? If this is not the case, go ahead and re - activate.

  • Aironet 1200 series - power of the weak signal near AP

    I recently bought an access point of the Aironet 1200 (AIR-AP1231G-A-K9) series and the initial setup - IP configuration on the AP, the installer does a SSID and turn on the radio.

    I used my laptop to connect to the SSID that I created, but to my surprise the signal strength of my SSID was only 2 bars and sometimes 1 bar and I'm within 2 feet of the access point. However, the speed of connection/signal quality was varying between 24 Mbps and 36 Mbps.

    Why is the signal strength so low?

    Is is because I did not buy them with external antennas?

    I missed something during the initial Setup?

    Y at - it an option that I have change/fine adjust in the GUI to get the best signal strength?

    Help, please.

    "Is is because I did not buy them with external antennas?

    Yes, that's correct. There is no internal antennas on this model of AP.

    You need at least one, preferably two antennas of the same type for each radio. If you have the old 'A' radio with the paddle antenna, then you only need one or two antennas of radio 2.4 G.

    Good luck

  • Equium A300D - power of the weak signal on built in wireless

    I've had my Toshiba Equium A300D - 13 X for a few years now. I also have sky ADSL broadband for a few years. My signal from the router (netgear) until a couple of months has been very well. The router is located in my hall, and I use my laptop mostly in the lounge which is through a wall, 3 or 4 meters. Strength showing on the wireless icon in the tool bar used at least 4 or 5 bars but now the best I have is 3 bars force and my connection is variable with Web pages take longer to load.

    If anyone has experienced this? Could there be something wrong with the internal wireless antenna?

    Any advice would be great.

    Hello

    Have you changed anything on your phone (settings, updates), router (update firmware, settings), or perhaps in the region (placed a device which can interfere with the signal)?

  • Equium A210-17i does not supply power to the top only with the power adapter plugged

    Equium A210-17i turn on when the battery is missing, but the laptop is set to the power supply dc?

    I have a dead battery and the laptop does not light with or without the battery inserted.
    The food came out 19v as it is supposed to.

    Also no led lights on the laptop when the power is connected and there is no sign of life at all by pressing power buttun.

    Thanks for any response.

    Hello

    The laptop must also lights up if the battery is not inserted.
    If the adapter is ok and if it s connected to the laptop, then the power led should be lit and it should light up.
    This led indicates that AC adapter provides power to the laptop properly.

    But if the LED turns OFF then that would mean that there is no power, and in this case the laptop will not turn on.

    We have about forty points of access Cisco Aironet 1131AG spread over four floors and they all have a static IP (BVI1) on the same SSID, customers will be on its own virtual local area network (dhcp on 3750 switch) and they use several channels (1,6,11).  Cisco Wireless Control System is pending. This wireless network should support roaming for customers (there will be Wi - Fi tags of multiple AeroScout and wireless laptops). To measure the strength of the wireless signal and wireless coverage on each floor. My questions are:

    1. How to measure the strength of the wireless signal: we must meet at least three APs available with signal excellent (I guess for the WCS needs that will determine the position of the client in the building)? We thought to use NetStumbler and a few laptops with wifi and measure as many points as we can as simpler thing. Or should we use something like Cisco Aironet Client adapters for our mobile phone and then use Cisco Aironet Client Utility (is it worth buying for our analysis and measurement)? Any other idea?
    2. What signal level should we consider for a good wireless (dBm)?
    3. That we should propose for authentication, authorization and management accounting? What happens to the roaming wireless? I did not quiteunderstand WCS, WDS and WLC-that should be used for above tasks?

    Thanks in advance.

    "Use the command on the AP" sh dot11 associations "will give you the clients associated with success.  If you add the MAC address of the client at the end of the command, you will get detailed information.  Look under "Signal Strength" and "Signal to noise".  Under the strength of the Signal, you want a value of-75 dBm or lower (lower values the better).  -76 dBm and is bad.  Under Signal-noise, you want a value of 25 dBm or more (values higher the better).

    To measure the strength of the signal, I use Airmagnet, but you can use Netstumbler or Cisco Wireless Site Survey.

  • A degradation of the WiFi Signal with laptop lid closed

    I have a HP Presario DV6 running Windows 7 64-bit.

    It has an Atheros AR9285 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter using the 8.0.0.172 driver Version dated 09/23/2009

    I noticed that if I run the laptop with the lid closed there is a degradation in WiFi signal.  More specifically, with the lid open, I can see the signal from my router with - 77dBm, but with the lid closed this fall to-87dBm. (No other changes to the environment)

    I checked all the power settings to keep the NIC power on with the lid closed.

    This deterioration is simply a feature of hardware design and antenna site is there anything I can do about this other than get external USB network card?

    Hello:

    I recommend that you only install the latest driver. Who can help a bit.

    But the main reason why your signal degrades, it's because the antennas are under the screen. When the screen is opened, they stick to the top. When closed, they are ineffective, because the ends are oriented horizontally and lower (toward you) instead of vertically.

    Latest version of the driver:

  • Weak signal with airport Extreme

    Hello, we have an Airport Extreme tour in our condo. The signal is that two of our rooms is low. Is there a way to increase the signal? Not Apple or any other extenders of sale of business or boosters?

    Thank you

    Another extreme airport would be the perfect match to extend the signal of your "main" AirPort Extreme, but an AirPort Express pourrait point be good enough for your application, if the budget is limited.

    Ideally, the second airport would be located in the middle of the area where you need more wireless signal strength and then connect to the 'main' airport using wired Ethernet wired, permanent.

    It is possible to have the second airport to extend the first using a Wi - Fi connection... IF... the second airport is where he can receive a strong signal from the first airport.  A good location is at halfway between 'primary' airport and the area that needs more wireless coverage.

    Remember that when you extend wireless like this, there is always a loss of about half of the potential wireless speed on the network, then the result will be a network with the best range, but reduces the maximum speeds.

    The more you have line of sight between the airports, the network will be operated. Or, another way of saying the same thing, is the 'extension' airport to expand the speed of the signal it receives. It can make the stronger... wireless signal but can't go faster.

  • Unable to connect to the generator signal with LabView

    Hello

    I use a Tektronix AFG 3021 B signal generator. I installed the National Instruments driver (tkafg3k) for this device. My computer is connected to the signal in the block diagram generator, I place a block called "Example - Getting Started vi". I run the vi (there is no need of connections, so the vi has just the one block).

    The vi then gives me this error:

    Error 1073807343 has occurred to be initialized with Options.vi of tkafg3k
     

    Possible reasons:

    Driver status: (Hex 0xBFFF0011) primary error: error (Hex 0xBFFF0011) - information on the inadequate location or a resource that is not present in the system

    I know that the signal generator properly communicating with the computer because when I run "VISA Resource Manager", I can ask for the name of the device and it returns the correct name.

    -I'm using Labview 8.6.

    -I have NI-VISA installed 4.2

    -The driver that I use is available here: http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=005994E37F5B2318E0440003BA7CCD...

    -J' use the driver that is for version 7.1

    -J' uses this compliance record: http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/1095/lang/en

    What is the cause of this error and how can I solve this problem?

    Thank you.

    Do you really need to use the IVI driver, or you can use the LabVIEW driver? If you have need of IVI, configure you the Max with a logical name, etc.

    PS You have posted to the wrong Board. It is for the signal generators of NOR. You should have posted to the Instrument of narcotics control.

  • 6008 USB shows the digital signal with nothing plugged

    So I really hope that's not too bad, I guess it is.

    I had problems reading of my digital USB 6008 entry this morning. Everything worked very well last night. Now all digital lines on the device to read a signal if it is has that anything connected to them or not. When I run the DAQ Assistant and test line, it shows a signal to each line. Then I did the joint VI (which should do the same) and it shows a constant signal in each line also. And I have nothing connected to the unit. Should reset somehow, or it is broken? Or am I just missing something?

    nckeeley,

    Look at pages 21 and 22 of the User Guide Ni USB-6008/6009 and specifications.  Digital lines have a traction 4.7 kilohm place resistance to + 5 V.  It will be a line of input opne look (and be) high.

  • The weak signal filtering

    I filter a signal of amplitude of the 0.2 Volt connection. It consists of pickup and noise of the line. How to do? Is the software filters are enough or I have to design a filter material?

    Hi sukhiray,

    If you have less than the full version of LabVIEW, there are several software filtering options available in the category of Signal Processing. You can configure your thresholds and the order of the filters and choose between the different types of filter. The choice between hardware and software depends on your needs and signal.

  • Weather a barrier on the power of the wireless signal?

    FREE WI - FI, RAIN & SNOW

    If a Protocol "N" dual-band WI - FI adapter which is connected directly to the USB port of a laptop computer inside the House and the router is in the garage about ten feet, should there be a weakening of the reception quality in the good House when it happens to be raining or snowing in the area of 10 feet between the garage and the House?  In other words, in addition to METAL interference or microwave OVENS or WIRELESS PHONES... not the weather elements possibly hinder these network connections?

    I thank very you much for any information.

    Hello

    The weather could affect the signal strength. Radio transmission uses digital spread spectrum. Even if a small problem can spend because of lightning nearby, the packet will be retransmitted, you won't notice a difference. (Unless the lightning blew your 2.4 GHz wireless system telephone and microwave ovens are generating more effective disruption.

  • Trace the signal with little data

    Hello everyone,

    I have the problem of tracking. I would draw a signal I have greated. I store the profile of signals in a table and this table I want to give with "draw the waveform. The problem now is that my signal may have a minimum of 4 values. The function of "Draw the waveform" plots each position of the table in the graph. With 4 values, the result is a triangle signal but it is false, that the signal should be like a rectangle (signal Wave Drive). There is no action between that. I have the oscilloscope the correct signal with only values in the table.

    In the 1 following you can see the result. The signal has an offset of 5 V, just FYI. The signal should be the signal in the following 2 (orange).

    Hope someone can help me.

    Best regards

    Probably a trace type thin step in PlotWaveform will do what you want.

    You can experiment with styles of different path for example native of race graphs.prj: you can locate with finder example or simply search in the \userint folder.

  • Why will my router stops transmitting the internet signal after that I turned off the host computer?

    Hi members of the community.

    first of all, my setup:

    modem - router (wrt320n lynksis, yesterday I uplodaded latest firmware - it does not help)---(par câble), PC (windows 8)
    l
    l
    various devices (cable TV, wireless: laptop computer (windows XP), phones (Iphone, android, phone etc.))
    Second question:
    Until now, I had no problem with router, but as I connected the new PC, with windows 8 is installed, the router, I began to encounter the following problem: I turn the host computer (wired, PC with windows 8) off after a minute or two the router (if not always on) continues to transmit the internet signal with other devices (wired (TV) and other wireless).  What's also interesting is that, when I unplug the PC from the router ethernet cable (when the PC is turned off), the router begins to function normally. Why and how to fix it? It seems that the PC would stop the router in the transmission of the signal.
    I would apreciate any help I could get. Because the router is working otherwise fine (when the computer host is turned on when the PC is disconnected from the it), I guess it has something to do with the windows configuration.
    Thank you all,.

    Hi there... we have a different router, but I had exactly the thing happens to me when my husband bought his new computer. After hours of technical support that gave no results of our router manufacturer, I did some research on the web, a vast and I think I found the solution.

    Go to control panel > system and security > system > Device Manager > network adapters > find your network card (mine says in time real PCIe GBE) open cela, go to power management and uncheck the BOX allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.

    After that I did that my router is no longer turns off/goes to sleep when my computer is. Offshore.

    Give that a try, and if all goes well, it will help you too.
