Title: Wireless Statistics shows errors
Post by: wmh on January 22, 2010, 09:07:13 AM

Just looking at the Traffic Statistics page for my 655, and was wondering if the errors received under Wireless Statistics are to be expected or does this indicate a particular problem? The wireless connection has been up for over six hours to this point.

Maybe your wireless signal is not strong enough.
Could also be the wireless signals in the neighborhood are the issue.
You could try to fix the wireless channel.

There is also a topic by Ozzed3 regarding the antenna placement. Feedback on this is positive so you could give this a try.

This is not a very unusual error report. TCP/IP has a resent mechanism, so there is no data corruption with errors. Actually, your number of wireless errors is very low.
