HH4 sensitivity seems very weak and at 5gb unusabl...

I have installed an outdoor wireless n IP cameras onto my HH4 and was hoping to see a great improvement in throughput speed using 5gb but the loss of power verses 2.4gb is incredible.
Using a Wifi analyzer app on my phone it would appear that you only see the benefits of 5gb  if you are in the same room as the router.
I made the mistake of setting up the camera indoors close to the router so the cameras switched to 5G mode and as I have the router set to sync 5gb and 2.4gb assumed that the cameras would switch back to 2.4gb if necessary when moved outdoors. Apparently the camera (or is it the router?) do not switch back so the signal drops off so much that the cameras are not usable - and whats really anoying is that when I use the camera set up tool to select the SSID my router is half way down on page 2 of the list of routers in my area! How come all my neighbours routers are showing stronger signal than my own one?
I have mounted the router in the centre of my house high up on a purpose built small shelf on the ground floor so it should have excellent coverage. The camera is mounted on the front of the house  about 9" above floor level on the first floor and mounted almost on the corner of the house so I am guessing about 10 metres absolute maximum going via the front door or direct line would be about 7 metres. Obstructions - via the front (wooden) door or else via 2 external walls
The camera has large antenna - about 7".
To try and overcome the problem I disabled 5gb in the advanced setup of the router and re set up the cameras but now even on 2.4gb the signal is pathetically weak. Is there any way of increasing the signal sensitivity of the the HH4?. At this point I dont really care if its 2.3 or 5gb as both seem to be causing the camera to fails

The camera seems to be holding in at 2.4g. Here is what I did
1 - go into advance settings of HH4 and turn off 5g. I could have given each frequency (2.4 and 5) a different name and selected the 2.4 SSID  but for the moment I cant see any great reason to use 5g as my router is in the hall and all my wireless IP products are not next to the router.
2 I purchased a 10 metre ethernet cable and ran it from the HH4 to the IP camera is situ (so up the ladder etc)
3 Run the ip camera setup. Select my HH4 connection (which is still about number 12 on the list of local routers and is not shown as being strong enough)
4 Disconnect the ethernet cable
5 Give the camera a minute or two to settle in onto wifi.
6 Its been connected for about 12 hours and so far still hoiding in

    After updating Iphone 4s to 6.0 the signal is very weak and the phone drops calls frequently.

    Based on what?
    "When Apple rolled out iOS 6.1, its first major update to iOS 6, yesterday, it introduced a series of bug fixes, software tweaks for iTunes and Siri and also added LTE support - but none of that was any use to the disconnected and discontented sufferers of a particular iPhone software flaw: greyed-out Wi-Fi."

  • Mic is very weak and resolution is weaker

    I purchased my HTC Incredible 2 last May.  The first 2 months with the phone was great, then out of no where, the mic just became very weak.  I went to my local verizon store and the first thing the person did was hard reset the phone, of course that did not correct the problem.  Well after two more visits to see about getting this corrected, I asked the question about replacement.  The answer I got was to have the phone replaced with a refurbished phone and a charge of $90.00.  I then asked if I could just change the phone altogether to an iPhone 4 for the $99.00 and the answer was they could not do it because it is not time for me to upgrade.  So pretty much I am being told to either pay a total of $300.00 for a used phone or $650.00 for an iPhone.  How is that good customer service?  I want a working phone for the money that I spend every month, but it looks like this is not the case.  So I have another option and that is to change companies all together.
    Has anyone else had this type of problem with verizon and if so,did it get resolved.  And for the Verizon employees that read this, please explain why you don't do everything you can to keep your customers happy.  All we ask is to have working phones and working service, don't try to rob us because a something bad comes off the assembly line.

    I was completely amazed you thought that ...
    "  The answer I got was to have the phone replaced with a refurbished phone and a charge of $90.00.  I then asked if I could just change the phone altogether to an iPhone 4 for the $99.00"
    was an actual option.... 
    We get really inexpensive (subsidized) phones to start with...  Most of us do not buy our phone at retail cost, we purchase them at a substantial discount when we renew our contracts...  So when you expected NEW replacement. or wanting a new iPhone as a replacement boggles my mind....   I wasn't wise cracking at all....      

  • How do I know if I have a wifi problem with my new iPad 3 (it seems very slow) and how does one address the problem with apple if there is one?

    I just read about the possible issue that some folks are having with their new iPad wifi (my seemed to be running very slowly but I thought that perhaps it was just me overreacting).  How do I know if I have a definite problem, and what is my recourse?  Do I need to take it to an Apple store for testing?  I have apple care which I assume addresses stuff like this.  Thoughts?  Thx so much.

    Your iPad is covered by the normal warranty for one year. If you have AppleCare that extends the coverage. If you feel there is a problem with your wifi reception visit an Apple store with your iPad for a consultation. Be sure to make an appointment before you go.

  • TS1398 Ever since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.4 my wifi strength is very weak and I have connection issues all of the time.

    I upgraded my iPad 3 to 7.0.4 and now I have wifi issues I never had before and apple customer support is no help. Does anybody know how to solve this issue?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • The Audio Output Signal is very weak and distorted. The Buil-In Speakers work ok. Whatcould be the problem???

    Hello,
    I spilled some liquid on my desk close to the Laptop. I proceeded immidiately to remove the MacBook Pro from the spillage site and dried the outside. The MacBook was not in use at the time and the lid was closed. Two hours later my wife used the computer and initially it functioned alright, however, after about 20 minutes it all of a sudden died and could not be re-started. Later that evening I tried a few more times to re-start and was partially sucessful for a few seconds at the time. The next day I opened the Back Cover and noticed the dried residue of the spillage on the battery cover as well as on the motherboard.
    I proceeded very cautiously to remove the stains and followed up with a hairdryer to remove any possible residue of moisture.
    After that, the MacBook Pro funtioned normally again, with the exception that the analogue audio output no longer supports an earphone, or any outside audio amplifier or TV set. I must add that there is some presence of audio when I increase the volume setting to high, but the bass sounds are very distorted.
    My question is, do I have to exchange the "Motherboard" in order to resolve this problem?
    I would very much appreciate any suggestions you may have!
    Regards,
    Hank

    Take it back to whoever "fixed" it. Apple won't touch it now.

  • I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand.  But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status.  What do I do?

    I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand.  But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status.  I also have very weak wifi reception.  What do I do?
    I already tried the following:
    a. Turned the phone off and then on.
    b. Checked all wifi connections – no problem given that all our laptops and desktops can connect seamlessly.
    c. I tried restoring the phone to original factory settings via itunes
    d. Tried resetting the phone.
    e.     Tried different microsims from all networks
    f. However, all methods failed given that the network reception is very weak and often reflects – “no service”.  And with regards to the wifi reception It has difficulty in reading even the signal right in front of the wifi router.
    I went to two Apple resellers here in Bangkok and requested that they please look at my Iphone and have it serviced.  I was frustrated when they said that given that I bought my phone in Canada, they are not able to support me and should instead try to contact the Apple store in Canada. 
    I went to apple.ca website and went to the expresslane support and I was said to register and callback.  Tried calling the 1800 number but given that I was in Thailand I had difficulty getting a connection.

    1st sentence, 4th page of the iPhone warranty found here:
    Apple may restrict service to the country where Apple or its
    Authorized Distributors originally sold the hardware product.
    From the Repair terms and conditions found here:

    Apple may restrict service to the country where Apple or its authorized distributors originally sold the

  • Scrolling in Safari very wavy and stutters compared to Firefox--Solutions?

    Playing with my new Macbook Pro for the past two weeks. I have noticed that scrolling up and down through sites found on Safari, especially news stories with pictures and texts, seems very wavy and stutters slightly, enough to be disturbing. I finally downloaded Firefox just to do a comparison and noticed that this phenomenon is greatly improved or completely disappeared in Firefox. Is there a way to fix or adjust Safari to improve this? In Firefox I am not able to use the three finger swipe to go back a page or forward, which I really appreciate.
    Another phenomenon, which might be the norm here, is that when I click on the sidebar to scroll up and down a page, and move the bar fairly fast, I see a big wave across the page corresponding to the position of the sidebar.
    Anyway, I would really like to stay with Safari if I can get it to perform a little more smoothly.
    Any help? Thanks.

    Hi WiLD_Cat,
    No solution I'm afraid but just to let you know I have exactly the same problem with my MBA core i5 1.7GHz with 8GB RAM which I purchased last week. Some web pages (Facebook is a good example, The Guardian as well) are really unresponsive/choppy while scrolling up/down, while others are ok. I have also noticed that typing text into web forms (such as this one) produces a noticeable lag with text appearing).
    Obviously interested if you or anyone else has a solution!

  • Microphone Input Very Weak?

    Just recently I tried to do a voiceover for a project, and I used Garageband. My microphone at that point sounded weak, but earlier in the day it was fine when I was using photobooth. It has since then been very weak, and I can't record any voiceovers. Any reasons for this?

    Under System Preferences / Sound / Input and then "Settings for Selected Device", is the "Input volume" set lower than it should be?
    Alternatively, if you an MP3 file out of garageband and then listen to that file in iTunes, does the audio still sound weak?

  • Resolving Replication Conflicts And Errors Very Weak In 5.0.0.6

    The current 5.0.0.6 release of 9ilite is very weak in the area of resolving replication conflicts. It seems like you need to create your own conflict handling routine. First, you need to read the C$EQ table in the mobile admin account to check if any errors have been logged. Then you need to read the CEQ$tablename table(s) from the application schema based upon the data contained in the C$EQ table. At this point you can change the data in the CEQ$tablename table and then call the consolidator api from your application to either remove or process the transaction that caused the conflict or error.
    I've worked with Oracle Support on this and they don't even have any information on this. It is left up to the user to figure it out.
    Perhaps this will be addressed in the 5.0.1 release.
    I was wondering how some other developers where handling this issue.
    Tom

    You are correct, the method for bailing out of unresolved conflicts or errors is very lame. It would be 100x better if there were some sort of log file/log table entry giving a clue as to why the conflict is being dumped into the ceq$x table.
    As far as workarounds, we're taking the approach of testing our app to the point that we hope no inserts into ceq$ ever happen. Probably a pipe dream, but hopefully later releases will address this.

    Saw may web sites discussing this same issue; many discussions point to hardware problems but there is no official word from Apple about it, which is disapointing !??  Few discussions point to software problem with solutions based on try and error, and they don't seem to work.
