Yes, but the problem is nothing to do with wireless reception, it works all the
way to the summer house in the garden through 3 brick walls. Like I have said
in the previous mail the problem is that the router firmware is a bit crap and
crashes the wlan connection, I mean the flashy wireless light on the front of
the router goes out and the router says that the wireless is down!
