Wireless Network not working!

[MaDHaVoK]

My wireless network is not working on all my computers and I was wondering what could be interfering with my network in certain rooms... How can i troubleshoot this? I think the settings are right. The rooms shouldn't be out of range.. Can I make my wireless network card get better reception? I have no idea guys, need help!

Thanks

Do you have 2.4Ghz phones ? How far are the computers ? Type "Ipconfig /all"(without quotes) on one of the computers that is not working and paste the results. What does the computers's wireless utillity say the strength is ?(Try hovering over it)

For Desktop (or tower case) USB Wireless Client Card should be considered as the preferred solution.

Why?

Wireless is depending on signal propagation.

PCI Wireless Client Card ends up been stuck behind the computer's case, resultant in obstructed transmission and poor performance. USB is connected to the Port with 2-3' cable allowing the Antenna to be placed above the System for better Transmission.

However a PCI card is a good choice when a powerful external Antenna is needed for long distance. Many Wireless PCI cards come with a removable Antenna.

Good source for external antennae.
