Thread: Broadband...Wireless....WTF

when you say you have to go out side , what type of roof do you have on your house , like tiles , some times they put a foil sheeting just under the tiles and this does play havic with radio waves also do you have any foil ontop of the celing as insulation as this also plays havic with radio waves

Thanks for that....roof is colourbond.....we assume it has insulation as it is quite cool on a hot day...whether it has foil...I don't know. Its a pain to have to run outside to answer phone...especially in this day and age.

Awwwww you be going down me matey ...and lets leave the porn out of the equation.........already got withdrawals.

On another note...after more researching am closer to a reasonable solution....the solution being an antenna attached to the wireless gateway modem....apparently meant to make a pretty reasonable difference.

Your "wireless" modem didn't have any antenna?

Wasn't Lucas was it?

BTW I to also own a pair of these shorts, they are shorts of goodness. We will not be bagged for wearing such.

Keen to see how antenna works.. I had a USB NextG wireless on my lappy which was crap.. now have '3' USB wireless .. even more crap

Wireless is just crap.. but hope the antenna will make it work faster for you

I have one of these on my car and it is AMAZINGLY effective. The house we stayed in on fraser had one for their next g broadband too.



I've never heard of this mob but the price looks ok. I'd call olbis and see what they say.

If you can get signal outside then I reckon one of those jobbies would fix the problem.

Do you have access to cable? If you have Foxtel and it comes in on a big black coax, you have cable.
It worked for me when I couldn't get ADSL due to having pair-gain wiring in the estate - best dial-up speed was 28.8.
