I'm trying to strengthen a wireless connection that spans about 150 feet and has to go through about 5 walls. I bought two of these:

I've noticed the connection will be perfect for a short time, but then disappear. When watching iwconfig during this process, it looks like the connection is good when on a low rate, but when it goes to 54 Mbps it falls apart. Should limiting the rate solve this problem? If so, how can I do that? I'm using hostapd on the AP and wpa_supplicant on the client. - Grant -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
