Hi All,
I am experiencing the "signal is low" issue with my dlink dcf 660, after seconds of getting online right next to my access point. Searching the forums suggests this is due to a bug in qtopia/sharp, and that there's not a lot I can do about it. I haven't been able to find the original reference to this- ie where can I find out more about this bug? So are my wireless days over? Does this happen to all users of cacko or sharp based roms? Is it related to particular cards? If I move over to pdaxrom am I going to be able to use wifi again? Thanks Jo |

the ma701 actually can fail just as easily. I've had two netgear cards fail the same way those dlink ones did (I had to bend them to keep them working) and I've read of others having the same fate. My spectrum/socket card so far has been very reliable.
