   I have a wifi usb antenna (rt2780) and my router is far from the computer (30%~45% range). I can use it without big problems in Fedora 16 and Mint 13 but Slitaz 4.0 can't find my network most of the time.

   Any tips?

   I have a D-Link DWA-140 Draft N. The wifibox shows all the neighbors' networks.

   Bus 002 Device 002: ID 07d1:3c09 => http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/RT2870.html => rt2870sta
   rt2800usb is loaded and conflicts with rt2870sta on Slitaz-4.0 2.6.37 kernel
   Stop networking:
   # /etc/init.d/network.sh stop
   Unload both wireless modules:
   # modprobe -r rt2800usb
# modprobe -r rt2870sta
   Load the correct module:
   # modprobe rt2870sta
   Start networking:
   # /etc/init.d/network.sh start
