4 edits | I have this problem at my apartment My apartment was built in 1921 and is completely lath based. I have to run two wireless access points in the apartment-one didn't give nearly the coverage I needed. I also had no way to run ethernet cabling throughout the apt., so I wound up using an ethernet over powerline unit (Slingbox-bought at Best Buy).
My main wireless router runs on channel 6 and is in the main bedroom where the DSL modem and my home office is located. It's also the only room in the house with a phone jack (old buildings are known for this).
The second router (configured as an access point) is set up in the living room. My wife's desktop computer is in the dining room and connects wirelessly on channel 11. The DirecTv box and a Logitech Squeezebox connects to it via wired LAN.
With the two wireless units I can use my netbook and laptop anywhere within the apartment and also outside. They both have the same SSIDs so the computers reconnect from one to the other automatically when I walk throughout the apartment. |
