I have a 2.4ghz motoral wireless. It's supplied by my local WISP. I don't know the model #. When I plug in my cables they work fine on LAN and other forms of internet. However when I use the SM wireless device for connecting to my WISP, I got flakey service. Now these cables had been running fine on everything else until this Motoral radio they sold us got installed. Now they are telling me my cables are bad, which obviously doesn't make sense to me.

My question to you guys is, are there such wireless devices that require a certian impedance on the line? These are just typical RJ45 and Cat5 cables. The Ironic part of my tale is that when finnally we ran a cable directly from their Wireless radio to our network interface, bang it was stable. They were also working on other 'issues' at the time and I think they are just trying to hose us. Dunno I guess I'm grabbing at straws. Old cables have been tested they're fine.. <shrugg>
