Ok, this is so wicked. I did a test by walking around my house with the N800 searching for access points and 3 houses before mine, maybe less than 50 feet away, all the access points disappear. I backtrack a few feet and i can locate several SSID's in the neighbourhood. Basicall as i am walking towards my house, i get to a certain point and the the N800 just goes "wifi blind".

So the problem is not the N800, but there is something that kills it from finding any access points less than 50 feet from the steps of my house. What the heck? COuld it be the powerlines, some bad "juju", nextel phones with all their buzzing radiations...i know i'm grasping at straws here, but i am so darned frustrated !!
The only way i can browse the web in my house is through bluetooth.


Regarding your request as to the MAC addresses of the access points, what can you tell from the MAC addresses?
