I have a Draytek Vigor 2820 Vn and for some months now it has been getting more problematical with wireless networking. Ten yards (metres, furlongs, cubits, whatever you are happy with) away the other day it was fascinating to see the signal strength wax and wane on a portable; nothing was being moved at that time. Other client machines show similar problems. The printer in this rooms sometimes just will not do its wireless connection to the router also in this room. The usual way to get things going again is to power-cycle the router. I think the router is about to be routed to that graveyard in the sky, though it might be worth while having a word with Draytek first. I have tried changing the frequency but no difference. -- Tim Powys-Lybbe t...@powys.org for a miscellany of bygones: http://powys.org/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
