WLAN connections are weird.

Windows reports much lower signal strengths than does the Linksys WLAN card management software.

Sometimes I see my neighbor's WLAN, sometimes I don't.

I definitely notice interference from our cordless phone (whose base station sits right next to the WLAN base station, even thgouh it shouldn't).

Will switching to a 802.11G system improve things? Our Airport base station is B/G, my work laptop is A/B/G, only our iBook is B-only and we could get a new card for it.
