Ooh! The quoty thing isn't working!
However. Point of order, Mr. Chairman!
The ruling at the top of the page clearly states "<i>anything in a software developer's life</i>", so we clearly <i>are</i> his personal support forum until such time as he changes job.
Just wait for him to post an "<i>I've been promoted to Project Manager!</i>" message, then you can jump all over him.

Why so curmudgeonly? She isn't asking for codes pleeze. Besides, have you seen her picture???

I'd check the channel usage.
For Android there is an app I use: Wifi Analyzer[^] which shows you how many other routers are on the same channel, or close and suggests better ones. It also lets you monitor the signal strength in near real-time as you move around.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Done that, no one else was at the same channel, but the router had the channel selection at AUTO mode, so I've selected the channel manually.
A little bit better... 
And I've disconnected the 54G mode...
And this has made it work better too...
I'll cross fingers and see if this stays this way for long...
Thank you OG!

You're welcome - good luck!

As Griff says, check the channel allocation. What other SSID are appearing, possibly causing interference using the same channels or channel overlap. Check which frequency everything is using. if every man and dog around is on 2.4, and your hardware supports it, switch to 5 (depending on distance etc.).
Also, look at the direction, are you looking at extending out in one direction, i.e. possible reflector option at main AP. Also look at the antenna angles, positioning, can the router be moved slightly near a doorway etc. All these help.
WifiAnalyser is definitely an excellent tool to play around with until you get things optimal.

I think the @#$% router I own is not really good... It only allows 2.4...
I've seen that putting it to a specific channel has improved a little bit the behavior...
Let's see what will happen from now...
Thank you!

In UK, I got so fed up with (what felt like) constantly replacing and poor performance Wifi Routers and Extenders that I ripped them out and hard wired in Ubiquiti POE UniFi APs, one upstairs and one downstairs. wired back to a Ubiquiti Switch and Ubiquiti Router.....so much better and never any problems now. 
Downstairs AP[^]
Network Rack in loft[^]
Over here in Qatar I have linksys AP (wired back to cannot be removed fibre router, telecoms company owned)and 2 Linksys Extenders, they can be problematic and need to be rebooted every so often. I am wanting to do the same as the Uk and replace them with Ubiquiti gear, so after holidays maybe look at how can get the wiring through the building (concrete walls and false ceilings).

Aw. The old Fiasco in which you could easily break your arm reaching for the passenger side seat belt (no rear seatbelts in those days, of course!) Such memories!
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

Nope, Axl still sucks and takes away from the ACDC sound I have grown to love. They need to retire now.
Second link, he sounds like Sam Kinison.
...in my opinion, that is.

Wow! Thank you for this. I never expected that he fits that good.

It's cute the first time.
The nth time, it creates a new behavior -- how long can I wait so that I'm not the first caller having to listen to the hold music.
Ah, the side-effects of technology on our behavior!
You can hear the hold song here[^] if you want. Like I said, cute the first time.

Agreed. Not bad one time, maybe.

OK, so 100 is the average intelligence. Without really thinking about it, one kind of assumes that average is... well, you know - meh, average. Not smart, not stupid, just... average. But actually, has anyone done any studies to really get a handle on just what average intelligence amounts to? (Other than answering IQ tests...) 'cos I think it's probably pretty damned stupid.
I'm asking this in all seriousness - not trying to have a rant. What is average intelligence - just how smart (or dumb) is someone with an IQ of 100?
For example - how would such people fare in:
applications to an average university
a course to become an airline pilot
learning to program in C#
studying law
running for public office (ha ha just joking with that one!)
..this sort of thing...
[edit] just to be clear: I am not looking for a scientifically rigorous answer - the question doesn't have one, I know that. Just.. as the title says: how smart is average?

Someone once said I was below average. I though he was being mean, but it was just his default mode.

That will go over some heads.

Intelligence is impossible to measure.
So, just stop there.
I'd rather be phishing!

Well, I realise that - it's also multi-dimensional/faceted... I'm not really after a definitive scientific answer....
