Re: loss of speed using wireless

Anyway, I have two other routers in my local area, one's on channel 1, the other on 6 (the same as mine).
Channel 3 seemed to have the highest value SNR...about 50-60.
In Net Stumbler it shows noise as -100 and signal as -44. Does that sound good?
I've been looking everywhere on the net for a simplified summary of what the numbers should be for the best result, which should be high and which should be low...

Can someone advise? I believed that SNR should be as high as possible, is that right? How about Noise and signal on their own?
Noise should be low, signal should be high, signal to noise should be high Signal to noise is the important one.
