Loss of wifi range

Hello, I have one of the last PB G4 15' 1,67Ghz, and since a few weeks my laptop WIFI do not work well:

if i am near my Router everythings works fine, but when I am far from the router, I do not see the WIFI anymore.

Any other laptop or Iphone still reach the wifi so it is not linked to the router itself.

I have checked inside the laptop the airport connexion with its antenna an it seems to be OK.

Any suggestion to solve this problem?

Thank you in advance.

If the connections are good and the router is good that leaves the Airport card. Do you have another you can try in your computer? Ralph

You mention "since a few weeks"...did this computer work fine on the router previous to a few weeks ago? If so, can you think of anything that may have happened to the machine around that time, or possibly did you install any network-related software, a VPN, etc.? You could always wipe the system and reload the OS in order to rule out software as being the issue. A friend had a similar problem, and it went away when he wiped the system and went to Snow Leopard. Obviously Snow Leopard will not work on this laptop, but my point is that a fresh install may help. And of course make sure it is fully patched, because very early revisions of any Mac OS tend to have networking and especially wireless glitches.

Thank you for these answers.

The whole installation was working since 2 years, and I have made no change at all.

Since the problem has appeared, I'have tried to re install Mac OSX Leopard, and made all the sw update but no change: the wifi range is still poor.

- for me it is not a software issue.

What is strange is that when I am near the router the WIFI works just fine.

I have a professionnal PC, and it still works from everywhere in the house, and it is the same with my iphone in WIFI.

Can it be a problem with the wifi antenna which seems linked to the screen?

Is there a way to put a third party pcmcia WIFI card?
