why is my airport express signal strength fluctuating?

[jkaz]

hi,

in the last couple of days my signal strength on my airtunes has been fluctuating when none of the variables in my home has changed.

anyone know what might cause this and how to prevent it?

thanks!

That's the nature of wireless equipment. While you can't see anything that might have changed they could be any number of wireless things flying around in the house goofing it up. Microwaves, near by cordless phones, another wireless network. The list can get quite extensive.

That being said, try changing the channel on the airport.

I second that. Mine has been working fine, but every couple months I have to change the channel on my girlfriend's express. It will drop in and out and a channel change solves it.
