[PB] Wireless Interference

[David Lambourn]

Peter,

I'm guessing that one of you is a musician?  If so, you might  
consider simply adding an Airport Express to your system - using it  
as a form of repeater you can extend the radio coverage, it might  
even be possible to so site it that it offers the possibility of  
playing music from the PowerBook(s) through your Hi-fi.

PS. I'm not sufficient of a boffin to suggest anything else, other  
than adding an antenna to the Base Station if you have one with that  
facility.

We have an Airport Extreme base station that my wife and I connect  
our powerbooks (a 1.25 GHz Aluminum 15-inch and a 1 GHz 17-inch)  to  
the internets with.  My problem is that when I am online, she loses  
the ability to connect to the base station.  This mostly happens when  
I am between her and the base station.  If I am on the other side of  
the base station from her, it is not as much of a problem.

I have tried changing the network channel, messing around with the  
interference robustness, etc, with no effect.  I didn't think I could  
absorb all of the base station's packets 8^D.  Any ideas about how to  
resolve this issue (besides the obvious rearranging of our work  
spaces).  TIA.
