What program are you guys using to get the DB readings? I just tried iStumbler but it doesn't seem to show it.

According to iStumbler, my Airport Extreme N router, which is only 15 feet away, only has a signal strength of 45%. That's pretty crappy. It says it is on channel zero, which I didn't think was possible. For frequency, it says -1.

Nevermind, I found the info in iStumber.

Still, for being 15 feet away, the signal stats suck. 45% signal strength, -96 noise, signal -58.

try channel 11 i find that too be the fasterest/besterest....

haha this is a tricky one. that comment only remains true if your internet connection is less that 54mbps (3.5megabytes per second).

don't you mean 6.75 MBps?

technically yes. theoretically yes. in real life that just isnt going to happen.

8 bits in a byte.

So 54 megabits = 6.75 megabytes.

yes i am not stupid. have you ever checked the actual speed that the airport runs at???

 

[Cybergypsy]

I am 30 feet away, 58% and 9% noise using the new belkin N1 vision

Regardless of its actual operating speed, you said that 54Mb p/s is equal to 3.5MB p/s which isn't true.

That was my point

ok ok you got me there. my calculation was incorrect. sorry.

but users please note. speeds are not going to be near 6.5mbps, unfortunately there is interfearence and all that other stuff to take into account.
