Brief update... I've played with my Handibot v1 + FabMo for a number of hours this weekend and it's working great with my upgraded antenna and resistor mod. I am getting 3-4 bars consistently with an occasional droop to 2 bars. I'm not sure why it droops occasionally but there is a lot of wireless going on both in my home and nearby.

I just got my FabMo upgrade board installed this weekend. It works well in AP mode when the computer is nearby, but I had a heck of a time connecting it to the my WiFi network. I eventually discovered that if I moved the Handibot right next to the base station I could get it to connect to the network. It took me a while to think to do this since the basestation is line of site across the garage aby Collin - Handibot Forum
