i dont have an old G4 laptop to compare it to, but my wife's rev b 12 inch powerbook seems to have very good reception. from about 100 yards away she still gets "2 bars" of reception. this is with a G4 running as a base station, so i think it might even be better with a standalone base station. its also through a brick wall... btw, the antenna's on her pb are located on the upper sides of the screen, one on each side. sandor On Tuesday, October 21, 2003, at 08:48 PM, Dale Hoffman wrote: > Has the revised antenna placement in the new G4 laptops improved > wireless reception very much? > > DaleH
