So cliffnotes first...What is your evaluation of the signal strength/abilities of the built in 802.11 wireless on the single core mac mini?
Long...
I've finally given up trying to diagnose/solve a wireless problem on my mothers computer. It seems to constantly drop it's signal under load, another machine utilizing the exact same router/wireless card has no problems. The software differences are very few (the main difference is that the problem PC is basically stripped bare). I'm not by any means new to wireless networking or hardware/software troubleshooting so I'm sure some of you can imagine how frustrating it is not to fix the issue. Anyhow I've always considered buying her a mac mini because it seems that it would be much easier for her to get her things done (email and internet are basically the only things she uses it for). So basically I am curious as to how well the built in wireless works. The setup currently places the router only about 30 feet or so from the machine but the situation my change. If anyone has any reviews they would like to offer I'd be grateful.
