@r00igev@@r - I did this test with Iburst 2mb modem with no Omni and got 98% strength.Then i connected the Omni and received 100%.Does this mean that this is the best signal i can get.I get under 1MB download speeds with 140ms ping.I get disconnected from XBOX Live quite a bit.

Where can I get the iburst utility software?

Firefox doesn't render the signal strength indicator on this page correctly.
I've created a Greasemonkey script to fix the problem.

What do you mean "while connected"?

Using the instructions in the first post I can check the signal strength while the modem is dialled in to iBurst.

Hi,

I hope someone can help me. Our ADSL line is faulty and I had to revert to using a friend's iBurst modem, connected to the Linksys broadband router, to share the internet to the whole LAN.

Does anyone know how to check the signal strength on the iBurst, through the router? I know there's a web interface for this, but I can't remember the IP address at all.

Any suggestions?

I believe you can only do this if your router allows you to set another local IP address on its WAN port, see here:

Damn! It looks like the WRT54GL Firmware Version: v4.30.7 doesn't allow the change and I don't want to flush the firmware right now. Our exchange has been offline for a few hours this morning and we have work to catch up to.
