mini works fine on N routers, its micro that won't work on N routers - no wireless N driver in micro, and in your case, you won't have to really ever worry about that, you unit uses k2.6 nv60k builds, which do not have a micro flavor.

The person using channel 3 is going to overlap your channel 1 selection. And from looks of it, there is no real good channel selection for you to use, you may try 11 as the other channel 11 AP is somewhat away from you, but not by much. _________________ Wireless N Config | Linking Routers | DD-WRT Wiki | DD-WRT Builds | Peacock - Broadcom FAQ
That's not good news. When I lived in an apartment I had far less problems than the physical house I do now!
The connection has not improved much from channel jumping either. Channel 11 looks like the winner, but when I refresh the site survey every once in a while I'll see a few more 11's listed.
Could this be the problem - Transmitted (TX)1492461 OK, 623 errors ?
Is Rate: 54 Mbps, usual? Looks a little low.
Am I on the latest build? Could that be a problem?

The transmitted errors are going to happen, something you can not really stop, mainly caused by all kinds of environmental factors.
Your rate being 54mbps, you tell me, do you have N adapters? If so, then yes, that is a lower link rate. Hopefully you are using WPA2 with AES only. All covered in the forum announcements up top, which is advised to read.
My connection will work great, but then all of a sudden it will be intermittent at best. I will conduct a site survey and will notice several other personnel with same channel as I do. I change to at least +2/-2 and it works for a little while (30 mins) and then the same thing occurs. It's like the other connections are stalking me!
This is becoming very redundant and is putting a burden on us all. Please help!

You could use channel 1, if you do use channel 1 in an HT40 setting in dd-wrt, make sure you select lower this way it'll use 1 and 4 - but you'll overlap with dayla. If you use channel 1 with HT20 you'll be fine and not overlap with 'dayla network'. And for the record, the closest person to you is 'GET YOUR OWN NETWORK' Most of the other network are fairly away from you though, RSSI 75 and lower is what you want to worry about. _________________ Wireless N Config | Linking Routers | DD-WRT Wiki | DD-WRT Builds | Peacock - Broadcom FAQ
I've used Channel 1 with HT20 and 40 prior today, and I have had the same results.
With channel 1 I am at a steady 3 bar yellow status, which still results in lag while online play. I've port forwarded my router and so forth. If I change channel's periodically to be +2/-2 on the site survey I can get about half a game with four bar green status.
I have also adjusted the ACK timing by 100 increments to see if this would help. I don't have enough experience to give a definite answer on this.
For the record, I am speaking of the physical location of the house "dayla" in comparison to "GET YOUR OWN NETWORK"

how does it fair with using channel 6 or 11? Even others using or overlapping are still somewhat away from you, but the way it is, there is always going to be some kind of interference because the people around you, atleast most of them on there, are all using HT40 and are going to block/overlap you in some sort of fashion. _________________ Wireless N Config | Linking Routers | DD-WRT Wiki | DD-WRT Builds | Peacock - Broadcom FAQ

do you have upnp set to clear un-needed forwards? also no punting the router what you want to do here is punt the neighbor's wifi's around you, i silently did this before by going ahead and running an HT40 and overlapping them and seeing how they like it, in about a week they all mysteriously switched channels, hmmm _________________ Wireless N Config | Linking Routers | DD-WRT Wiki | DD-WRT Builds | Peacock - Broadcom FAQ
