A friend of mine had someone install a Linksys WRT54G router in her basement home office, and then install a Linksys G PCI adapter in a PC in a first floor bedroom. Straight line distance between the router and the PC is probably less than 20 feet, but the PC is getting such low signal levels that the connection barely works. I downloaded the user's guide for the PCI adapter, to see if I could detach the antenna and move it out from behind the PC with an extension cable. Nothing in the manual on this. Does anyone know if this card CAN be modified this way? If not, what else could I try, to improve the signal strength? John Jones, Detroit
