7800N: effects of 1.06g firmware on wireless range?

Post by gerryk »

Recently bought a 7800N with 1.06e firmware. We live in an old rambling house so wireless range is not ideal (tho' better than with previous Thomson Speedtouch!). Will 1.06g upgrade significantly increase wireless range? I'm somewhat hesitant about doing the upgrade, having read mixed reports on the stability (?) of this upgrade. Please advise :)

The firmware will not increase the power output of the wireless card.

The firmware only has a wireless driver improvement, client ID support (Sky)
