Hi All,

I have a customer with a Mac Book Pro.  On two separate Netgear
"router/hub/Wireless Access Points", after changing the wireless
channel, about five minutes later the (radio strength) power
levels drops from the max of five bars to two.  Is the Mac Book
Pro telling the router to do this?  Is there some feedback
mechanize in play to keep your signal from going down the street?

-T

The customer also has an iPad and an Android phone on the network.
