Our old 2Wire card worked better than the computer that is hard wired, that card died and has now it's been replaced but the connection is horrible. It's good for up to 500 feet and it's 74 feet from the modem it connects to. I've tried the Windows Zero configuration as well as the 2Wire set up and both are awful. Constant loss of connection or a connect rate of 11Mbps. The antenna is clear of all debris and has no metal near it (if that makes a difference) Anyone else having issues like this that can be resolved or do I need to go back to the phone company who supplies the card?

FYI: I've tried the Linksys and they are pure garbage in my opinion, it was worse than the 2Wire.
