[Pc_Support] 802.11b vs g - signal distance & strength

[Damien McKenna]

Well, after getting our wireless working again yesterday morning when I
had the laptop sitting right beside the router, I brought the laptop out
to the living room and the signal strength dropped to about 30%.  Last
night I turned it off and when I turned it on this morning the card was
completely unable to make a connection.  I didn't have time to fiddle
with it so I'm not sure if it's the distance or if the drivers gave up.

I was wondering whether y'all thought that getting an 802.11g card might
improve things?  The current card is only 802.11b and as mentioned has
signal problems back to the router, would an 11g card do any better?

Thanks.
