Wireless Router Probs.

How far away is the receiver from the router?

Is it going through empty halls, or solid concrete?

Does it work when they're 2, 5 and 10 metres apart?

Do you have a decent looking sister that also lives in London?

Have you tried making sure that both appliances work before "installing" them?

There you go; Sam will get you sorted.

I've got my laptop about five metres from router, with nothing in the way. I can connect to the router, but the router doesn't connect to the internet, it worked when we first got it for about a day then stopped.
I don't have a sister, is this going to mean the router won't work? LOL

EDIT: Typo

Quick update on situ, got it all fixed. Housemates boyfriend sorted it, firmware update or something i think he said.
Cheers for all help given though.

Moral of this story is update the software/firmware or drivers before looking to see whats broke, 9/10 times hardware right out the box is generally packed with first edition drivers thats buggy as f@ck glad you got it sorted though you can leave your neighbours connection alone now
BTW may be a bit nieve of me but will he not show up as online on your neighbours pc?
