I am now with Zuku Internet (Turbo 4). I have an issue with the Cisco Router they gave me. Signal is very weak as I can't pass 30 feet (wall or no wall); as soon as I exceed 30 ft, I get a 0 RSSI !! Q1/ Is it just me or is Cisco Router given by Zuku "taka taka" With Access Kenya's Alavrion router, I was getting a strong signal both upstair and downstair (I stay in a duplex appartment)...But Zuku's technician told me he can do nothing with the Alvarion because it is not compatible with Zuku's router ? Q2/ Is it true that Alvarion's router can not be set up as an access point or repeater of Cisco router ? Q3/ Then, what would be my option to get full coverage upstair and downstair.

Buy something like Ubiquity "Power AP N". Will cost you about 10k, but you'll have the signal both down- and up-stairs and upto 100m away. This is a more cost-effective way than, IMHO, getting a Linksys (6k) which may still require you to get some Powerline adapters (8) to connect both floors. You could replace the Zuku Cisco with the Power AP N, but I think they may not allow that if they need to manage the Cisco upstream. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.
