Please log in for more thread options I just removed the old drivers and router and installed the new one and its setup files. The farthest pc used to get a very low/low signal, now it gets nothing. The closer pc used to get a low/good signal, now it gets very low/low. The new router is supposed to have a much broader range. I have a WG511 in the laptop and a WG311 in the desktop. Nothing but the router changed. | ||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options location as the old router then it sounds like it may be a tad bit less effective. One thing I found that helps for my laptop is to put one of the antennas horizontal because most laptop cards antennas are kind of horizontal. The other one is left vertical for my PCI card in another pc. | ||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options > after "upgrading" from a WG614v2 to a WGU624. Any ideas?
I don't know about the WGU624, but the WG614v4 seems to be have better range than my SMC7004WFW did. > The new router is supposed to have a much broader range. I have a WG511 in
> the laptop and a WG311 in the desktop. Nothing but the router changed. The WG511 that I added to my PC at the same time has far better range than the Orinoco silver that I used to have, measured against multiple WAPs. You might try some parabolas or corner reflectors on the WAP. http://www.freeantennas.com I used the EZ-10 corner reflector, because I had some difficulty forming the parabola, and the EZ-10 was enough gain for me. < http://www.rahul.net/dold/clarence/SMC/EZ10-strength.htm >
