i have a linksys wireless G router that i use for wireless net connection with my laptop. the router is located in an upstairs bedroom and the laptop sits in the living room. the problem im having is that the laptop will get a lot of dropouts and will loose the net connection. do you guys have any tips on making this connection more realiable? anyone ever buy a range expander? how well do they work ? -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

You can try and buy the range extenders, i know at CC we sell them, or Try Pre-N Its saposed to give 800% more coverage, and i think it runs around $130-150.. but you also would have to get a pre-N card. But that will def work.
