<DIV>I have a DSL-based network, with a "2Wire" router that was provided from
AT&T.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The problem?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>While all three of my laptops work GREAT in my office (where the router is)
using the wireless cards, when I go to the backyard (through the house from my
office -- about 100 feet from the router), the two cheap PC
laptops (each under $1,000) continue to work well for internet access
using their cards....yet, my $2,800 17-inch G4 PowerBook gets no signal from the
router at all.....</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is frustrating. Any ideas? Is the AirPort Card just
weaker?</DIV>
