hilsI appreciate I work in IT but I've always been a bit clueless when it comes to the networking side of things.
Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for this.
When I got back from Dave's yesterday my internet connection was crap. My wireless strength was 2/5 and it took several refreshes to get any site to load. Same thing today so I moved my laptop downstairs (ie closer to the router) and my signal strength immediately jumped to full. Now, I'm sure this was working just fine on Friday and I can't think of anything that might be blocking the signal upstairs. Any suggestions? My iPhone uses the same wireless connection and that seems to work fine in my bedroom.
I am confuzzled.
It's not really practical for me to just use my computer downstairs, especially when I have to do things like Skype meetings for Random Acts. It's not really fair on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
