Improving WiFi reception on the receiving end?

I did numerous searches and couldn't find any info that pretained to my problem. We travel extensively in our motorhome to a lot of places that provide wifi, but in many cases, I either get a very low signal or no signal at all because of distance from the antenna. Is there anyway to improve the reception on the MacBook Pro? I see an external antenna by C. Crane that is supposed to work with the Mac. Any input on that or a solution would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Looks like a visit to Apple then ?
Cheers

  • Oracle DB at the receiver end

    Hi All,
    I have a scenario to insert/update/create product details into oracle backend from SAP. If the product is not available, the product should be created along with update of different details into Oracle DB tables. Does anyone worked on this type of scenario in which Oracle is at the receiver end (JDBC adapter). What are the best practices to follow? Please send across advices/weblogs or links if any.
    Thanks
    Deno

    Hi,
    you can either use : UPDATE_INSERT action
    in the sql document format
    or you can check if product exists (in a BPM) and do the insert/update
    based on that info
    but if you use the product then you must use some sort of application right?
    maybe at first try checking if there already are some
    products interfaces ?
    as if there are any they would handle all
    of the checks etc (like BAPIs)
    it's always better to use interfaces then
    direct jdbc inserts...

  • Ipad2 face time low and static audio at the receiving end

    iPad 2 face time audio is very low and  alot of static at the receiving end. Any suggestions on how to have a clear sound?

    Hi tizoast,
    Umm, Odd.
    You seem to be saying that iChat has the correct Mic/sound input slected in the drop down in iChat > Preferences > Video section > Drop down.
    You also see to have the setting in Sytem Preferences > Sound > Input tab.
    You say that recording in other apps is ok with this set up and we have looked at the Bit rate of the MIDI device in the post above.
    At this time I can not thimk of anything more to try.
    I will sleep on this and post again if I think of anything.
    Edit: Possibly deleting com.apple.ichat.plist will make iChat reset the readings it is getting from other sources.
    Deleting this and restarting ichat recreates the .plist but you lose any saved Status Message, Font style, Bubble colours and other less visible things like Individual sound alerts.

  • How can I improve Wifi reception of MacBook Pro?

    I have just bought an external display to use with my MacBook Air and MacBook Pro (17") on the second floor of my house. My modem/router is on the first floor on the opposite end of the house, no more than 55 ft. away.
    My MacBook Air gets a strong full Wifi signal (all 5 bars are showing)—so strong that I can easily stream Netflix movies without interruption, but my MacBook Pro gets one so weak (only 2 bars are showing) that I can hardly surf to any webpage at all. And this occurs even though both computers are in exactly the same location.
    I have AT&T U-Verse, which uses a model 3801HGV modem/router. No computers in my house are connected via ethernet; all through wireless.
    My question: What can I do to improve my MacBook Pro's signal strength? Relocating the modem/router is not an option. Do I need to boost my router's signal somehow? If so, how? Or can I improve the reception of my MacBook Pro?
    I do have an idle AirportExtreme that could be used in a solution, but I am not sure whether, or how, I could use it.
    Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

    55 ft is quite some distance, especially if you are runng 5 GHz.
    Maybe it is dual band.  2.4GHz is more for distance even if a bit slower.
    Adding a second router is a great idea.  Just plug it in
    open your airport utility.  Automatic set up.

  • Unable to Receive Files at the Receiver end

    Hello All,
    I have configured scenario Proxy to File with 1:2 transformation (Interface collections) ie
    1 Sender and  Receiver Service
    1 Sender interface
    2 Receiver interface
    1 Message and interface mapping
    1 Receiver determination
    1 Interface determination
    2 Receiver file channel with FCC
    The QoS is Exactly Once.
    My scenario is failing at Adapter Engine (Receiver end) failing to create 2 text files.
    My Question is
    1. The Status of the File Receiver channel in monitoring are in error status displaying "Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: Error: invalid receiver channel 'a3478068e95133a8ad28777a3fe1344d'" What is the reason for this ? I checked the Cache update and cache is upto date.
    2.In SXMB_MONI , When Checked the trace part of Receiver Determination it correctly displays
    "<Trace level="2" type="T">Number of Receivers:1</Trace> "
    But when i checked Trace for Interface Determination it is displaying " InterfaceCollection</Trace>
      <Trace level="2" type="T">...valid InbIf without Condition: InterfaceCollection</Trace>
      <Trace level="2" type="T">Number of receiving Interfaces:1</Trace> "
    Here it should display "Number of receiving Interfaces:2 " Right?   What is the reason for this ? do we have todo multimapping?
    3.In Message monitoring for Adapter Engine i could see messages in Holding state. what is the specific reason in his case (I know the literal/functional meaning) of messages going to holding state  . "Maintain Order at Runtime" is checked in Interface Determination?
    May I know in which situation the messages would goto into holding state (isit because IE was not able to find 2 receiver interface)  and without unchecking the "Maintain Order at Runtime" option and manual intervention isit possible to process the scenario successfully?
    Many thanks in Advance .
    Regards,
    Pavithra

    Hello Ninad,
    Since I am using EHP 1 SAP NetWeaver PI 7.11 , there is no explicit option of selecting "Enhanced Interface Determination" ( Its understood implicitly through the Signature tab in Message mapping (1:n transformation)) and I have done multimapping as message mapping (In the mapping editor, switch to the Signature tab page) for my scenario
    The cache (AE) is perfectly fine
    I am noting down my observation here.
    My scenario uses QoS EO and the " Maintain Order at Runtime" option was checked. There were many System error messages due to other issues for the previous month and holding messages for this month.
    I guess due to this the channels were in  error though the channels' status were in green but it was displaying message " Message processing failed. Cause:com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: Error: invalid receiver channel '1ac04de4d1103d09b5b9c764c8895e98'"
    Now I filtered all the 'system error' messages with Sequence Id and deleted all of them and Resent all the holding messages and there were no message in holding .Now again i tried sending some data's ...the channel are functioning fine and no such error messages are displayed
    Regards,
    Pavithra

  • How to improve wifi reception

    Keep getting disconnected when just on the edge of wifi reception area. Is there an antennae or USB plug in to increase reception? I live near a public library that offers free wifi, but depending where I am at while using my MBP the reception changes.

    There are third-party ones. I can recall reading one: Quicky™ that claims to boost your wireless RF power from 30 milliwatts to 500 milliwatts, ten times the wireless power. But it does cost $225.

  • Email font changes on the receiving end

    Hello,
    When I write an email the font and color of the font are as I intended.
    When my email is received, the font size varies through out the email and some words are a light grey.
    I've tried to correct this in the settings.
    How do I correct this?
    Thank you,
    Cheryl

    I imagine your clients must be using Outlook, which is seriously broken when it comes to e-mail standards, especially HTML e-mail. You can work around the issues with Outlook by only sending plain-text e-mails and making sure that, in the Edit -> Attachments menu, the last two options are checked. Unfortunately, that means that HTML signatures are out.
    If you need something with a fancy layout, either attach a PDF file to the e-mail or include a link to a website in the e-mail.

  • Could the wifi reception on the macbook be at fault ?

    I have a white macbook. For the past few weeks the 'internet connect' drop menu shows a very variable signal level from the BT hub, sometimes the full 15 bars , sometimes 0 and everything inbetween. At first I thought it was the hub but changing channels made no difference. Daughter let me borrow her pc for a few days and when the macbook showed low signal strength her pc was fine, no drop of wifi signal.
    So...do I have a problem with the laptop and is there any simple home test that I can do to find out before I incur apple expense and talk to the dealer ?
    Cheers and thanks.

  • My emails appear to be tagged as "junk" on the receiving end. How can I fix this?

    When I go into my online Outlook account, I see that emails have been sent (they're in my "sent" folder). But a test message sent to my wife went to her Junk Mail. When I forwarded the original message from the "sent" folder, it went directly to her inbox. Is there a missing tag of some sort?

  • Sending txt and the receiving end person get it saying is from someone else

    I updated my husband's iPhone 3GS to io5 and now he send a txt message and we get it but is tell us is from my dauthers iPhone so it said from her number or her email address ....we all use the same store email wich is my dauthers email but even logginoff from the stores still happens but he is the only one having this problem...HELP PLEASE

    No disrespect intended, but if I could see the address I'd have used it long ago - and it was not included in bccs (which have their own problems under this awful system - it's amazing how such a great machine coud come with such a poorly thought out mail program), it was listed in ccs only as part of "and 2 more".  I have at this point figured out that a practical work around is to start a "reply to all" which shows the address I want to capture, then just delete the started note - but it's silly to have to do this and hard to understand why I shouldn't be able to instruct the system to just show all ccs.  So the question, I guess, is can I and I'm just missing it? I do appreciate your taking the time to answer.

  • Pap2 Poor quality on the receiving party end

    Hello,
    I have a PAP2-NA device that I have configured with my company's service. The problem is the voice quality is choppy and breaks up on the receiving party's end. The quality from the persom making the call from the PAP2 device is fine which leads me to think it is one of the settings on the device. I have other phones (Polycom SIP phones) using the same service and the same bandwidth connection and they have no problems. This further leads me to conclude it is a setting in the PAP2 device. Does anyone know which setting could be adjusted to improve quality on the receiving end?

  • Iphone volume very loud on receiving end?

    When I am talking to people they mention that the volume is very loud at their end. It sounds like I am talking very loud to them from my iphone. It does help if I do not place my mouth so close to the iphone when I am talking into it. Has anyone else noticed this?
    Reception is very good at my end. It's the receiving end that I am questioning. The reception is good at the receiving end it just seems like I am talking very loud to them.

    I've had no complaints.
