Topic: Infocast 3.5 WiFi reception

WiFi reception appears to be quite lousy. Checked signal levels throughout the house and found a fairly consistent WiFi signal level. Have tried reorienting the unit to no avail.  At most 2 bars on level indicator. Has anyone tried improving the reception by adding an external antenna? Does adding an external USB WiFi receiver help? Does anyone know where I can get schematics for the unit.  Thanks for the help.

Re: Infocast 3.5 WiFi reception

I had a similiar issue; even with the improvements in the new OS.  I went to a wired via USB network connection. 

I did try a WLAN dongle with an antenna on it and it worked better.  The WLAN "card" is inside of the Joggler; and not integrated to the motherboard. 

I also went to using the smaller "Apple" style USB to NIC.  It sometimes doesn't work well.
