I setup a new Roku box with an older DL-524 WiFi access point (channel 3 with security running). I noticed that fairly often the Roku looses the signal from the DL-524 and the show I am watching stops. I used a WiFi analyzer on my Android phone and noticed that the signal strength from the DL-524 varies from -50 dbm to -70 dbm, with an occasional spike to -100 dbm over about a 10 minute period. <br>
<br>I have another access point at the other end of the house (WRT54G, channel 11 with security running), and it shows a +/- 10dbm variation in signal strength with a few spikes to -100 dbm in a 10 minute period as well. The -100 dmb spikes between the two devices do not seem to be correlated.<br>
<br>1. Is this behavior normal for WiFi access points?<br>2. Could the Android WiFi analyzer be the cause of this strange behavior?<br>3. Do I need a new access point for Netflix? Any brand recommendations?<br><br>Thanks!<br>
