Eh. I asked a few people in the past few days, but couldn't come up with a clear answer.
My current situation is that my mother owns two houses, across the street from one another. And she's only willing to pay for internet for one house. So I was hoping I could get a wireless connection, and hope to receive it in the other house. As of now, we've spent $330 on a linksys wireless n router, and a belkin wireless n notebook receiver.
For testing purposes, I booted up my laptop in the first house (where the router is located) Sadly enough, with the router in the living room, and my notebook in my room (one wall away, about four inches thick) I get a 'fair' signal, at 216Mbps. In the other house, I get no signal at all. I'm considering replacing the Linksys router for a Belkin, if only for matching purposes, and hoping it'd be faster, but I doubt that'd be the case. The genius at best buy said it'd be compatible with my A+G receiver, and I already returned it once. The second time I went back, he said the belkin receiver should be sufficient. And now it's.. a bit slow. And he guaranteed 300 ft. with 5 bars of excellent signal, and it'd start to die off from there on. I get no signal over there at all. *pout*
...So. What now?
