My fiancee and I just got a wireless router and wireless cards for our computers, they are no more t

feet apart; yet his computer says that his signal strength is excellent and mine is very low. They are both desktop computers. Does anyone know what could be causing this? My computer constantly gets booted offline because of this. Could it have anything to do with the fact that he has a bigger hard drive? Someone PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Are the wireless cards different or the same? Different brands aren't always the same (even if the label says 54mbps b/g or something like that). Many times, cheaper versions aren't as strong with their signals as name brands like linksys or belkin. For example, a wireless 54 b/g from linksys will get a MUCH better reception strength than a 15$ trendnet 54 b/g card. Also, some places in a house are known as ''dead'' zones. Try moving your computer around a bit. Also, check your settings on your wireless card, you can up the gain to max so that it is on full power. One other thing, if you hvae the antenae that came with the card, make sure it is fully screwed in and adjust the antenae in every way to see which way gets you the best reception.



*Note: walls, floors, ceilings and everything in the way of the card and the router make for lower receptivity. Watch out for that.

just call tech support if its from linkys they have great tech support
I suspect you have a bad card. Switch the cards between the 2 computers. If the problem follows the card return it and get a new card. If it doesn't the problem is with your computer, drivers, or the configuration of the card.
