Does anyone know of a tool for Linux or Windows that will see what is the
best channel to use?
I have a desktop (gentoo) and a laptop (XP) on my home network. My wireless
router is a D-Link DI-524. The desktop is wired to a port and the laptop is
wireless with an Intell Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG.
I have noticed connection issues when I SSH into my desktop from the laptop.
I can connect and after anywhere from 30 seconds to about 3 minutes, the
conneciton locks up and then is lost. I thought it was an issue with ssh so
I opened up telnet, however I get the same issue. I use the desktop all the
time and never notice any issues when I download from the net.
I am wondering if it is a wireless issue? The strange thing is that I am
using the laptop now and I cam getting about 4Mbs download fromthe net.
However, as soon as I use cygwin or putty to ssh/telnet in to the desktop,
the connection gets crappy.
I also noticed the connection issues if I try to use sambe from gentoo to
XP.
Thanks,
Jim
