["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Zoltan Palagyi, just to clarify, is this a revision A or B router?

As well, could you please advise on which wireless type are you using
(802.11n, 802.11g)?

If you are using 802.11n, if you restrict your router to 802.11g only,
reduce the beacon interval to 50, and ensure the router TX power is
100%, would this allow you to move farther away than 2-3m?
