So I have had my talking house upstairs in one of the rooms broadcasting. I however decided to see what range I would get if I move it downstairs (Plus I wanted more room in that room and the station was takeing up quite a bit of space :P). I put it downstairs in a office where I have my Modem, Router, and Access Point. I plugged her in down their and decided to see how far she would go downstairs. I was shocked to see I got much better coverage downstairs than I did upstairs. I will be sure to post the range I get when I do a full test but places that were noisy or weak had a good signal.
There are a few things I am guessing might be boosting it but I would like to hear your guys view on it.
#1. I think since it is lower to the ground it has a better ground than it had upstairs.
#2. I have a cutom built router and network I made in that room so their are allot of cables and wireless activity down their so I think those cables may be helping boot the signal.
#3. Out side not far from that room is a Power Box. I am thinking it could be traveling through the power lines under the ground.
I was shocked to see this but I guess I will keep her down stairs now :P
What do you guys think helped with this range boot?
Thanks :)
