My Dad lives in 2 story home + basement and is a MS only user (don't attempt to argue this point). For historical (hysterical?) reasons the Internet connection is on the 2nd floor. He had a wireless AP and connectivity on the ground floor was fine....reception in the basement was weak and subject to frequent disconnects. We replaced his wireless AP with product (after trying and returning other products) from Ubiquiti and he is now a happy camper. He even has connectivity his detached garage. OK, maybe the caveat would be YMMV but in my Dad's case it would have resulted in sound advice. -- It matters not whether you win or lose; what matters is whether II win or lose. -- Darrin Weinberg èæå æåè / åååååèåæ
