Using non KOP router, possible cause of wireless communication issues?

[saba]

Hi,

Team 611 has been using a WRT54G router instead of the one provided in the KOP (somebody took the one we got in last year's KOP, so I brought an old router from home). Because this router doesn't support wireless-n, we have both the bridge and the router set up to be as compatible as possible. I think I remember it working fine in my basement, but it has been performing abysmally at school. After looking through other posts, I am suspicious that perhaps it is the school network interfering with our wireless communications. I was wondering if someone could explain what is going on and perhaps explain why.

thanks,
