Ok first off I took the cheap way out and bought a generic router and WiFi cards, all G series.
First off does brand effect range ?
Secondly heres my network layout, the pc literally above the router, gets only 3/5 bars of signal which i assume cant be good. I haven't even tried the pc in the other house. So I've considered the cheapo kit I have a lost cause.
However, are they any kits specifically good for range ? or what would you say is the best way to get signal to the next door house ? its drawn roughy to scale, the distance cant be more than say 8m between router and next door pc.
Maybe repeaters, or boosters? I dunno.
Cheers
Chris
