Hey all,
Have a problem I thought I would ask for some help on.
We have a 2 story condo. The internet/router is upstairs and the TV/Entertainment setup is downstairs, pretty much directly below it.
My setup includes 2 Linksys WRT54G routers with Tomato on it. The upstairs one is just setup as a regular router. The downstairs one is set as a bridge.
I have comcast cable. My trouble is I can't ever get the connection downstairs to be strong enough so Netflix streams in HD. It's always SD. I don't know what I can do to improve the wi-fi downstairs. Running a hard line isn't an option. My router already has more powerful antennas. I'm thinking a wi-fi signal does not travel well vertically?
I don't know much about home networking, but I believe I did read there is another way to setup my routers or than in the bridge configuration that might give me a better signal?
Any help or input most appreciated.
