Hi Bob,

Your question is not off topic, it is radio related and after all, you could 
be attempting to run echoLink on that bad 2.4 gh link.

From what you have said, I suspect that you have turned on either WEP or WPA 
security to protect your network.  If you have enabled security, some rf 
adapters do not do a good job of logging in to a secure network.  The first 
thing that I would try is turning off security all together to see if that 
solves the problem.  If that doesn't work, I would try another rf card in 
the computer giving you trouble.

I should mention one more thing.  I just replaced a DLink DI624 router 
because I had to reboot my router about once a week so that my laptop would 
connect reliably, of course, I do have security enabled cause I live across 
the street from a school.

Subject: [BLIND-HAMS] Off Topic - 2.4 Gh linking Problem


I'm having trouble connecting a 2nd LinkSys 2.4 Ghz receiver to my amateur
radio computer.  The one between my wife's compuuter and my main one works
fine.  The 2nd one sees her router but won't connect even though the signal
strength is excellent.

If you can help, please contact me off group.

Thanks.
