Unfortunately "redneck states" don't have a lock on stupid.
It's everywhere.

True. But in the Redneck states there is only limited moderation in its application.

At the same time, the amount of firepower in our little historically Jewish plurality quite liberal Philadelphia suburban neighborhood is not insignificant. Those who are former or children of, or affected directly by Holocaust Victims tend to not want such things to repeat themselves. Brownshirts and their ilk would not do well around here.

Yes, but these do not cover the Wi-Fi frequencies.

Set up a wi-fi access point on one of the computers. This is generally just
a software package that needs to be enabled. (depends on OS)

Then, using that A.P., see how far other computers can be and still work.
Either your router is dying (possible) or there is an interference source.
That could be ANYTHING! Could be a bad CFL lamp, an LED lamp, cell phone,
computer, some piece of computer/camera/video/entertainment equipment, or
even some home appliance. These Wi-Fi signals are intentionally VERY weak,
so it doesn't take a whole lot to interfere with them.

The only way to find the interference is to turn everything off, one at a
time, or maybe the two laptops talking to each other could help you locate
it to a specific room. Of course, if it is from outside, then you may have
a HECK of a time dealing with it.

I'm forced to use Wi-Fi when traveling, but use wired at home and work,
because for the most part, it JUST WORKS. Also, some hotels have wired
Ethernet ports available, and their Wi-Fi runs at 100KBits/second
intermittently, but their Ethernet jacks run at full speed all day.

It's all relative. Microwave ovens can produce a thousand watts of RF
inside the box. Wifi signals are usually in tens of milliwatts. A
very effective shield can still leak enough to cause problems.

Netstumbler 0.4.0 was last updated in 2004 and only runs on Win 2000

Perhaps something modern would be more useful:

What it is filtering is the voice frequencies for the phone.

Not clear from that sentence, but methinks you might have it backwards.
My DSL never went "through" the filter. Filter prevents the phone
stuff from degrading the DSL signal by isolating each phone device
at RF frequencies required by DSL.
Maybe I just go back to wire.

Or an abacus.
When you badmouth someone, you should be sure your advice
is absolutely correct and stated clearly. Otherwise, you just look...

It says "Windows cannot find any networks". The problem is intermittent and can happen again in five minutes or five days.

As this is happening I am remembering something from the past. We bought a cordless camera and set it up and the cordless phones in the house would no longer work, unless you were within inches of the base. This leads me to believe it is some sort of interference. We are taliking three laptops here, and the problem is getting worse. And thsat is cannot find ANY networks means the wifi in the house is probably not going bad, or it would have found the other ones in the neighborhood.

I do not have a spectrum analyzer, but I do have an old YV woith a UHf band if that would help.

See now I am in a state where I don't want to call the ISP because if they semnd me a new MODEM they might say I have to but a new PC because mine is not compatible. I swear the next person who says such shit to me is getting a bullet in the brain. I will hunt them down even if they are in fucking Pakistan.

Last time I went into that it was about a router that I paid good money for and tech support said they no longer supported 98SE so they could not even give me3 a walk through on the phone on how to manually set up my internet access. I said "Hey MF, did my fucking money expire ?". What's more this was AOL on DSL and was $55 a month. But it wasn't their problem. the highest priced end user service in the world and they got nothing to say ? Hello ATT and goodbye AOL.

But anyway if nothing else I will just go buy a CAT5 cable, in fact two and get me old basement box back on the network. But it wouild ne nice to have wifi in the garage.
What happens if you put the computers really close to the router? You
don't say at what distances you're experiencing no connection or
dropouts. If you can maintain a good connection a foot away, it's
likely that both PC and router are OK.

Good. I'll ramp it up a notch. But later... I have a customers
machine almost done and need to burglarize their office tonite to
reinstall it. Driving you insane can wait.

Google search finds three different printers, an Adtran ISDN modem, a
Cisco security appliance, and a bunch of other stuff that use that
number. Could you be a little less [deleted expletive] vague?

You don't have to delete anything. But we got it all and were taught not to use certain words in school n shit. The adults also never talked down to us.

But now I see my mistake. It is not a 4110 it is a 4111n, and Pace is the make. Sorry, but sometimes I have trouble remembering my name.

This is the second one of these they sent us, the other one which was a different model always seemed to have good RF but it was losing the DSL carrier on the line.

Actually now I am trying to get a fax on the tomes of these outages. It almost seems like cellphone peak time but not quite.

Damifino.

I missed the standard American education in applied profanity. So I
found other ways to be insulting, denigrating, tactless, insulting,
etc. It is quite possible to accomplish these things without
reference to sex practices and body waste elimination practices. For
example, if I were to indicate that you might be mistaken, I would
merely suggest that your cranium is firmly embedded in your posterior
rectal outflow orifice.

Customer comments at:
<https://www.amazon.com/Modem-4111n-Broadband-Gateway-Packaging/dp/B009WEZ1BS>
are evenly divided between "it's great" and "it sucks". Most of the
complaints seem to revolve around the wireless section. Hmmm...

I see a few of these in the area on AT&T DSL. I don't see much of a
problem with them. I did have one with wireless disconnect problems,
but that was solved by installing a 2nd wireless router, configured as
an access point, to handle the wireless.

This is the second one of these they sent us, the other
one which was a different model always seemed to have
good RF but it was losing the DSL carrier on the line.

Ever consider using a seperate modem and wireless router? That's what
I like, but customers consider the extra boxes and wires rather messy.
For DSL, I use:
<https://www.netgear.com/home/products/networking/dsl-modems-routers/DM111PSP.aspx>
For U-verse (IPDSL), I'm stuck with whatever AT&T offers.
For routers, whatever I happen to like. This week it's Asus RT-AC66U.
Better to switch (hardware) than to continue the battle with the
4111n.

Actually now I am trying to get a fax on the tomes of
these outages. It almost seems like cellphone peak
time but not quite.

Do you have U-Verse (IPDSL) service?

I find that invective is most fun when clean. However, with some individuals, even the most massive clue-sticks are wasted. One of my favorite applicable expressions is one used by the "Car-Talk" guys - unencumbered by the thought process. Which goes well over the head of most to whom it applies.

Or, "You do have a point. However, if you comb your hair just right, perhaps no one will notice." "So, a thought crossed your mind? Must have been a long and lonely journey."

Nope, just simple DSL and a land line which doesn't even have long distance, we use cellphones for that.

No. The line pair is connected straight through to the router (modem).
A low-pass filter is used to present the voice frequencies to a POTS
device and prevents it interfering with the DSL signal.

You need to take your own advice. I shan't wait for your apology.
