<P class=MsoNormal>Slightly off topic, but anyway. Wifi in my house has been
really bad for ages. It just does not work. I thought it was interference from
servers, but I replaced them, and things are still really bad. Well, today I
needed to get some Perspex, and there was a cheap PC place a few doors down,
so I picked up an 802.11n router for $55, that was supposed to have 5 times
the range of 802.11g products. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>After setting the device up, I tried to use my laptop in
the Garage. No Wifi. Back to the office, and I found that it worked not too
bad next to the access point, but it was marginal about 1.5m
away.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I realized at this point that I probably had an
interference issue. After all, what else could it be. Then I thought that it
might be a faulty PIR on my alarm, since they are dual PIR/Microwave. Turning
the alarm off resulted in fantastic Wifi performance. Turning it back on
stopped the Wifi. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Then I went and found the manual for the PIR. Turns out
that the units I purchased were not 10 GHz but 2.45 GHz. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Just something for people to watch out for. The units I
have are from Crow Electronics<o:p></o:p></P>
