Home Networking Problems
Hi,
I have a problem.
I have a dlink 504 wireless router in the house. My macbook, imac and iphone connect to it. It was in the middle of the house.
Yesterday I moved the router because got an original xbox (thanks tcn33) It is now at the end of the house, with the xbox plugged into it.
The imac is at the other end of the house, about 25 meters or so with a few plaster walls in between.
The problem is that when my macbook connects to it, the imac disconnects. When I disconnect the macbook, the imac reconnects. When the imac is connected, it shows full strength.
The imac has a reserved IP addres while the other devices are not reserved.

Can anyone tell me what is wrong.

Thanks

Sounds like you need to "allow multiple connections" somewhere. Check the dlink settings

After further testing I have plenty of IP addresses and everything else except for the imac works fine off it.

Could it be possible that the range is to great for the imac. Can you increase the range?

Thanks
