Airport signal strength
Suddenly however the wifi signal strength seems to have diminished so that I'm only able to connect to the internet when in the same room as the router.
Using iStumbler the signal strength, when close to the router is 35%. Take the laptop into my bedroom (for instance) and it decreases to the point that the airport no longer sees the network.
My partner has a similar laptop (perhaps 6 months newer) and the signal strength reads 55% when close to the router - allowing network connection throughout the apartment.
Is it possible that the Airport card in my MacBook is on it's last legs? Does receptivity decrease with age? Or could I be looking at another solution?
Cheers
