Troubleshooting
Problem:
My wireless network performance is inconsistent.
Data transfer is sometimes slow.
Signal strength is poor.
I am having difficulty establishing and/or maintaining a Virtual
Private Network (VPN) connection.
Solution:
Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity and
the throughput performance between devices decreases when
the distance between devices increases. Other factors that will
cause signal degradation (metal is generally the worst culprit) are
obstructions such as walls and metal appliances. As a result, the
typical indoor range of your wireless devices will be between 100
to 200 feet. Note also that connection speed may decrease as you
move farther away from the Router or access point.
In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we
suggest temporarily moving the computer, if possible, five to 10 feet
away from the Router.
Changing the Wireless Channel
traffic and interference, switching the wireless channel of your
network can improve performance and reliability. The default
channel the Router is shipped with is channel 11. You may choose
from several other channels depending on your region (see the
section titled "Changing the Wireless Channel" on page 46 for
instructions on how to choose other channels).
Limiting the Wireless Transmit Rate
transmit rate can help improve the maximum wireless range and
connection stability. Most wireless cards have the ability to limit
the transmission rate. To change this property, go to the Windows
Control Panel, open "Network Connections" and double-click on
your wireless card's connection. In the "Properties" dialog, select
the "Configure" button on the "General" tab (Windows 98 users
will have to select the wireless card in the list box and then click
"Properties"), then choose the "Advanced" tab and select the rate
property. Wireless client cards are usually set to automatically
adjust the wireless transmit rate for you, but doing so can cause
periodic disconnects when the wireless signal is too weak; as a
rule, slower transmission rates are more stable.
