Computer Networking - November 2006

My laptop doesn't pick up a wireless internet signal nearly as good as my dad's computer does. Is there any way that I can increase the wireless reception in my laptop?

I have a server that is used to distribute internet lines to other people (main line connected to server > server gives out a line to the switch and switch lets about 32 people connect) . I have a bandwidth of 1 MB/s. Some people uses software like DAP and limewire and takes the fullspeed leaving the other users at byts/second. Is there a software I can use to control the speed of the network.

I was hoping someone could help me find the best way to network 2 computers in my townhome. My previous home had an unfinished basement so runing the cabling was not a problem. Now that I live in a townhome, I'm not sure how to run the wires. The two rooms are directly across from each other in the hall with a bathroom in between them. I was thinking of running the cable under the carpet but I don't want to creat a bump and I'm unsure about cutting the carpet. Can anyone help me out?

i have a desktop and a laptop...something happened to my internet connection and i reset the modem....after that..my desktop can connect to the internet via cable BUT my laptop is having problem.

It is stated that there's either "limited connectivity or no connection"....i am assuming something is wrong with the IP or gateway....

i am not computer savvy and i hope someone can tell me the solution to this...THX

Respected sir;

I would like to infrom you that I am doing research at the department of computer science, pune university, I read the paper title “ Efficient Route Repair Methods in AODV” and I am working now on aodv, Therefore, I have got some questions I hope that you will help me in this matter.

1- Can I use multipoint rely (MPR) in route discovery process in Ad hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV)?
2- How the AODV discovers its immediate neighbors?
3- Can I use hello messages with limited local scope before the route request broadcast to the network in AODV routing protocol?


Notes that: “The use of local hello messages ensures that only nodes with bi-directional links are considered to be neighbors”.


With my best regards.

Thanks.

I'm currently using a Linksys 802.11B wireless router. My only complaint with the router is that I can't get complete coverage in my home. Would a 802.11G provide better range?
