I did not have good coverage in the garden prior to getting the Superhub but I do now by utilizing the Edimax which I am pleased with, and I did answer this above.

Re: Losing wireless connection

You've answered it now but not specifically previously.

So Before S****hub you did not have the coverage you now enjoy as you did not/have not the same set-up.

before the superhub he probably didnt need a repeater of any sort

we all say to him that the superhub wireless cripples over load, and he says it doesnt, yet his wireless is going through another router

I did say that I had improved coverage above.

I had a long ethernet cable for my daughters Xbox so disabled DHCP in the Edimax and placed it at he back of the house, others have done similar even on this forum.

I take you have failed to read my posts, both networks have completely different names so therefore I know which network is in use depending on where I am in the house.

I'm not saying what he needed or didn't. I'm just asking him to tell us the previous setup and if it needed changing then why!

I think he's answered that - it was changed because he had the chance and the equipment to do so. That's fair enough.

As KenK says above I had the equipment and decided to see what I could do with it especially as the Edimax is less than 12 months old and a shame to not use it.

Masque, I'm not getting at you but you've avoided the answer to the question again!

I had my router in my office upstairs at the front of the house, I now have a network at the front and the back extending the overall coverage.

Only possible with 2 wireless devices,

Re: Losing wireless connection

So can we be clear now then?

Previous to you upgrading you had an acceptable network which worked (I'm trying to cover the pedants here).

Since upgrading you have used your original router to extend your network to a greater extant than it was before.

I can't see him not agreeing with my quote. Unlike you I have no problem with Masque except his continuous droning about how his works etc. He's not the only one though!
