I need to run this box on a wireless connection, and am having some problems. 1 - I have a very poor signal, considering that the box is only around 3m (10ft) from the router. I changed the antenna on the router to one that says it increases range by up to 50%, maximum 40m, but the strength received hasn't altered. I still get only 40% strength. 2 - I thought that wpa_supplicant cached the passphrase, but it doesn't seem to. I still have to give the passphrase after bootup completes. 3 - At bootup, ntpd tries to run before there is a connection. I'd like to get the connection up in time to use ntpd at boot. What would I need to do? Thanks Anne
