My new apartment has been plagued with little problems. The last one to be fixed is this...
We have cable internet and run a wireless router (we've used both d-link and lynksis with the same results). My landlord's contractor business is in the building next door and we noticed everytime one of his trucks drives in or they use their nextel direct connect nearby we lose connection.
Is this coincidence or could it be some sort of static interference that is killing our signal? All other times our signal strength is excellent. We configured our wireless to every channel with the same failed results.
Is this something a signal booster could help? Or are there other avenues I could pursue short of wiring up all my computers (which isn't an option anyway).
It never ends!!!
