+John Teacake MVC Posted June 28, 2003 MVC Share Posted June 28, 2003 I have 2 US Robotics Wireless Cards (1 for the PC and 1 for the Laptop) On both computers the software that came with them (U.S. Robotics Wireless LAN Configuration Utility)., i have a slight problem. It does not show the Link Quality and Signal Strength even when both computers are connected. Ive updated the software but still doesnt work. Ive included a screen shot. Does anyone know how i can enable this ? Any help would be greatly appriciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Posted June 28, 2003 Share Posted June 28, 2003 Windows XP Supports Wireless, if you're using that, you don't need any software, just install the drivers for your wireless and then use Windows XP. The operating system will show you signal strength if you use the network connection icon in your taskbar =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+John Teacake MVC Posted June 29, 2003 Author MVC Share Posted June 29, 2003 Yeah im using the windows one and i can see the strength but i was just wondering if there is a way to use the US Robotics one. Its strange it isnt working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoiks Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 I have the same thing BUT only one of my computers shows signal strength the other just regards the wirless card as a network card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+John Teacake MVC Posted June 29, 2003 Author MVC Share Posted June 29, 2003 it said somewhere on the us robotics site that there is a software update have u tryed installing that. i tryed installing that to fix my problem and it didnt seem to fix it, u might have better luck than me. ive even tryed formatting and re installing the PC but it still does not show up so im guessing theres a problem with the US Robotics software not my PC. When u installed ur software did it show the signal strength automatically or did u have to enable it somewhere. What cards have u got (ive got the 2210 (laptop card) and 2216 (PCI Card)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+John Teacake MVC Posted June 30, 2003 Author MVC Share Posted June 30, 2003 oh well maybe it has something to do with the operating system ? Anyone else got any suggestions on how i can enable this in the software. maybe a registry tweak or something ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
