Have a wifi fence between my neighborhood and the one behind me. Something about power cables both on poles, and undergroud in my neighborhood and underground in the neighborhood behind me.

It's interesting.
Can walk around with iStumbler on my laptop and it finds all of my neighborhood wifi but none of the neighborhood behind. Walk thru the gate to the other neighborhood and all my wifi disappear and all the neighborhood wifi behind me appears.

Was trying to connect my wifi and my brother's wifi 2 houses away. The only way I could punch through that wifi fence was to get some 5 watt radios and yagi directional antenna. And then it still wasn't very dependable. I could go 6 houses in any direction except the direction across that wifi fence.

Now there is interference from so many home networks can only get good wifi inside my house.

At my brother's he had a specific place tp put his router and unfortuantly his TV is next to a fireplace on the opposite side as the router. Had to put a wifi bridge router that line of sight to the router, and the TV for the TV to see the network.

Put wifi in my nephews new big home. It was new construction with those metal studs instead of wood. Had to put in a base and 3 wired bridge routers to be able to get any speed more than two rooms from the hot spots.
