I was playing around with my Linksys WRT54GL, and something just bugs me.

Although 2 laptops can see 2 other networks other than my own, the site survey
of my WRT54GL, using V23SP1, always comes up as "none". The laptops connect
to my Linksys just fine.

The router is sitting in a closet, or a little wire shelf, right near the ceiling. The
laptops are just sitting on the couch or kitchen tables. I would think that the router
is in a better position to see my neighbor's networks.

This is not urgent, but is just bugs as to why this does not work as I expect

replacing the router just a few centimeters can change a lot to the reception...

I rotated the router 90 degrees, and now I can see 3 of my neighbors networks
