Wi-Fi problems with workbee

[JohnHaine]

Let me guess, you have your WiFi router in the house connected to the incoming copper line. As well as the cnc machine you are using a computer, tablet or whatever to drive the machine in your shed, connected by WiFi, right? The sky broadband connection has nothing to do with it as you will only have a local connection. The problem is that both the machine and your PC have a long WiFi range to the router. Does the ooznest support USB connection? If so I suggest you use that in the shed.

Update: looks like it doesn't have USB but does have Ethernet, either built-in or an additional option. If so it can connect directly to a PC in the shed with Ethernet interface, or via a router or hub. Or you could run an Ethernet cable from the router in your house down to the shed. You could also try a WiFi range extender strategically positioned to get better coverage in the shed. I assume that you don't want to run the machine when you're not at home, so the broadband connection to your home is irrelevant.
