Do you read different signal strength for the *same* access point under Windows as compared to Fedora? Or do you see more access points available under Windows? Note, these are two different things. One possibility is that Windows is accessing wireless channels 12 and 13 which are disabled by default on Fedora, (these channels are illegal in US). Another is that signal strength is reduced (strong signals are illegal in EU). What is your location geographically? You might want to read up on what is allowed/available for your region, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels how to modify wireless behavior in Fedora, http://www.mail-archive.com/fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx/msg58444.html and to understand what is going on in general: http://www.mail-archive.com/fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx/msg58447.html HTH, :-) Marko -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
