Afternoon,
Last week I looked at an individuals wireless in their home. The complain was it was slow even with two wireless switches. Upon doing a scan, it was found the main unit ( 2wire 2701, AT&T is the provider) was using a channel (1) that most of the neighbors were using. Moved the unit to channel 3 and all seemed to be fine. Looked at the power setting for the wireless and boosted it up from the low setting it was at, to provide better signal in the house.
Noticed after a while the internet light would go read on the 2wire and the client via the web browser being use at the time, would come back asking to restart.
Have never seen this type of behavior before, what type of an issue am I looking at, adsl modem issue, issue related to power setting boost or something else I am not thinking of at this time? At this time the internet connection is being reported as not functioning.
Regards,
Terry
