Zoltan Palagyi, just to clarify, is this a revision A or B router? As well, could you please advise on which wireless type are you using (802.11n, 802.11g)?
If you are using 802.11n, if you restrict your router to 802.11g only, reduce the beacon interval to 50, and ensure the router TX power is 100%, would this allow you to move farther away than 2-3m? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1335475 Title: 8086:08b1 (rev 73) [Dell Vostro 5470] WiFi keeps dropping Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Wifi only works if I'm within 2-3 m from the router.
