Its about as high as it can get (2nd floor about 2 feet from the roof)

The thing is the other desktop works perfectly which is using a Dlink 520 PCI card, and my Pocket PC (DCF-660W card) signs into MSN Messenge more reliably.

I might try moving it to another room just to see if it makes a difference but I think its down to the different chipsets and the Dlinks none standard 22MB option (which is disabled along with 4x option - no idea what it does) these don't affect the 520 and 660W which don't support 22MB or 4x either.

Maybe a new none dlink router is called for? Shame really cause it has some great config options.
