Wireless signal weak E2000 - movies on netflix offline

It will be greatly appreciated if someone could help me understand why my signal is so poor. The router is

Located upstairs and my sony dvd player that has netflix is located in the living room on the ground floor. Cisco had

mentioned that the signal had no problem getting through the walls. I noticed that the signal is only

5%. I tried to change the channel to fixed tag instead of the auto and setting

threshold number and fragmentation etc, but nothing seems to help.

When you go into internet settings for the sony player not only siganl is 5%, but also access to the Internet

changing of OK for failure that tells me that it is because of the wrong signal and why my movies

disconnected

Any recommendation will be great.

Thank you!

Yes thank you for the info. I wish I new this ealier is not a waste. I'll also give a the E4200 and see if it works.

I just moved the router downstairs in the kitchen via an ethernet cable long with no walls and at a distance of approximately 40 feet and

signal is now about 30% and fluctuates bewteen 5 to 30%.  Film has not dropped so yes it is the cause of the walls and

distance. It's kind of blade you pay so much money and you think that it will work.

Thanks again.

  • How to enter a wireless signal and convert Ethernet cable?

    I'm totally bafled by the nomenclature of wireless gadgets and would appreciate help. I already have a wireless router that allows my laptop work anywhere in my house. My need is to recover the wireless signal and somehow get this signal into an Ethernet cable.

    The reason is that my DVR (Replay TV) connects to Internet via Ethernet (not USB) cable and I want to move to a place where it would be impractical to try the new wiring through the walls.

    Thank you!

    You need a "wireless ethernet bridge", like the WET54G, WET200 or WET610N.  Once you set up the device, just wire your DVR to it.

  • can wireless signal is strong, but I can't connect to internet

    Wireless has been lost, what it means, no legacy wireless is not available

    Hi Jose,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    Wireless signal can show low if your PC is too far from the access point or router wireless or other device that is connected to the wireless router uses the strength of the network. If some devices such as these are near your computer, turn them off temporarily or move them further. You can move your computer as close as possible to the router and check.

    Limited connection means that the PC is connected to the router, but the PC has not been assigned a valid IP address, so you can not actually in the Internet. It can also indicate that a valid IP address has been assigned, but the PC isn't an Internet connection. If you are connected to a home network, try restarting the router.

  • Hi, my screen flashes during playback of movies from Netflix

    Hi, my screen flashes during playback of movies from Netflix. It happens with other applications or when I play DVD. It begins in about 5 seconds in movies and it happens about every 4-5 seconds. The screen turns white for about a second, then it shows some horizontal lines, and it goes back to normal. And after a few seconds, he begins anew. I also noticed it always happen when I move my mouse during playback of a movie at Netflix.

    My PC is HP Pavilion 17 inch. I3 Haswel processor and Intel graphics card built-in. 8.1 to win

    I've updated all the drivers, but nothing helped.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Figured out. Change refresh rate of 60 Hz 40 Hz p p and it solved the problem.

    BTW, HP helpdesk is completely useless... He does not call them – at least their 'free' in India support is completely incompetent.

  • Wireless signal recognized but not internet connectivity: laptop HP 2000, model QE334UA, Windows 7

    I have a 2000 Notebook PC HP, Model # QE334UA, running Windows 7.  The wireless signal is showing all the bars at the bottom right, but I am unable connect wireless to what anyone (for example, any web browser, Outlook, Dropbox).  When you connect via a LAN, however, I have no problem.  Here are some details on what I tried:

    1.) this same problem occurs on all the networks I tried, even if the other computers are on these networks, is not a problem of router/modem.  Yet, I restarted those and nothing helped.

    Rebooted 2.) the computer.

    3.) done a system restore.

    4.) checked IPV4 settings make sure IP & DNS server addresses are configured to automatically get.

    5.) turned on and off the wireless on the keyboard button.

    6.) as gone with the Device Manager and press update driver software for all network adapters.

    7.) deactivated and reactivated all NICs.

    I have read many other forums - than where I got these ideas- and it seems a common problem, but I could not find an answer that works.  I'm not too technically savvy, so maybe I'm missing something, but any help would be LARGELY APPRECIATED, especially because my warranty just expired.

    Thank you

    I have it!  It turns out that my SonicWall VPN has been the origin of the problem.  Thank you!

  • Satellite L750 - low wireless signal

    I have a 5 day old L750 Satellite which can collect only 40% wireless signal less than 20cm from the router and loses signal total of about 2 m of him, turned to Toshiba support who suggested to the restoration of the system, did this and no improvement. Have you checked the Atheros driver and he said to his place to date, also checked the option to which has been suggested in other threads.

    The router is good because my vintage Compaq and ipad2 have full strength signal of several rooms by far.

    Please help as I'm pretty impressed with my first purchase of Toshiba and will return it if I can't solve this problem.

    Hello

    Have you noticed this problem only with the Eco Mode setting or also with power plan to high performance? This means that you must define * Maximum Performance * power option for the WLAN card in terms of power.

    Next to the update of the WLAN driver, you should also check the BIOS version. Take a look at the page if there is a newer version and if so try to update from Toshiba:

  • Graphic issues yoga 3 - MOVIES from NETFLIX do not PLAY SMOOTHLY

    I had the Lenovo update today and hope that it would treat the video problem. For those of you who are not familiar with the issue, Yoga 3 will not smoothly play a video. For example, I tried to play a movie from Netflix and it was a question of image by image: the video wasn't smooth and impossible to watch. The audit has been good, but the video jerky all the time. I was hoping that the wyould discussed this since it's their laptop upscale and it is reasonable to assume users would love to watch videos on their Yoga. Given the time of horrible response of Lenovo to questions, I hope that this problem will not look for months and months. They are pretty well silent on technical problems. I'll look for sites where I can make note of this issue to other unsuspecting buyers do not have the same $1 400 mistake I did. Not being able to play a video of Netflix is insulting.

  • my printer will not get the wireless signal and so my laptop can not find print, what should I do?

    How can I make the printer get the wireless signal?

    1 Microsoft do not have printers - so it would not be my first option to ask in the forums to help MS.

    2. we have even less likely to help when you do not tell us what printer, what operating system, what router wi - fi or anything!

    I suggest that you follow the instructions in your printer manual, with operating instructions of your wi - fi router to work things out.  You should connect the printer via a cable to the wireless installation.

    If stuck try the support forums on the Web site of the manufacturer of the printer with the forums on the website of the manufacturer of the router.

  • In more of microwave ovens and cordless phones... can TV, VCRs interfere with WIRELESS signals.

    WIFI & PHONES WIRELESS, ETC.

    In more of microwave ovens and cordless phones... can TV, VCRs interfere with WIRELESS signals.  I had to buy a cordless phone and it was always in the sealed box.  I was then with a laptop to the library branch when the librarian approached me and said that "even if unconnected cordless phones and microwave ovens, as well as TVS, VCRs and vacuums... can cause interference with the optimal speed of WIFI and efficiency... »

    Can someone explain if it is absolutely correct.  Of course, I politely responded that given that the laptop was still in its original packaging and seal (I had just bought and not even opened) and unplugged, it could not interfere with anything.
    Please specify.
    Thank you.
    Joe

    A non powered device (not plugged in, no batteries, etc.) cannot intervene in anything at all.  No power, no transmission, no interference. However, any electronic device can interfere to some extent with any other wireless signal, if it is running.

  • With the help of desktop computer as a wireless signal Repeater.

    I recently moved and my for my PS3 wireless reception is terrible, so I was told I could use this other desktop computer, which receives the signal much better, as a relay instead of buy a wireless signal Repeater. How can I get this computer also spread the signal from the original router downstairs?

    I'm sorry, but there is nothing built into Windows XP that can do what you want.

    You might be able to do a search on the web and find a third party program to do this.

  • What's Dell Dimension 2400 desktop computer capable of capturing a wireless signal? Should this function be switched?

    Dell dimension 2400 desktop computer was plugged into the wireless router we have. We got a new computer and moved the old desktop (Dell 2400) in another room. It is not picking up, or even searching for a wireless signal. She still has this ability? How can we it give this ability?

    The Dimension 2400 is not normally a built-in wireless networking capability.  To view, go to the Control Panel > Classic view > System > hardware > Device Manager and double-click network adapters .

    If that doesn't show wireless network card, you can add it by buying a USB wireless network adapter or a Wireless PCI adapter card .
