Hello All,
I've just purchased one of the LED Light Mini 150M USB RT3070 dongles off eBay as suggested in the Wiki (FAQ - which wifi dongle) and is doesn't seem to work with the Hummy on wifi channels 1 to 4. It works fine on a laptop, but when tried on two HDR-Fox T2s running CFW 3.13 it does not work unless the wifi channel is 5 or higher. Because of local wifi usage I normally use channel 3. Its not a signal level or interference problem as the two Hummys are currently less than 4 metres from the router and in the same room. I normally use wifi channel 3 as it suffers the least local interference from other wifi users. The Edimax dongles seem to work fine.
Any thoughts on why the RT3070 isn't happy on the lower wifi channels on the Hummy but work on a laptop? Its not a major problem for me as I can swap the new RT3070 unit with an Edimax attached to a PC upstairs, but wondered why this strange behaviour.
Cheers,
Peter
