Some work some don't
« on: October 23, 2006, 08:29:38 PM »

I have about 20 X10 devices around my home.
Some don't work at all some work part of the time.
How can I make the X10 signal stronger comming out of my computer.
I think that is why the devices at the far end don't work.
I have installed a bridge between both sides of the AC line and it is an amplifier also.
but I still need a stronger signal.

also How can I tell if that is my problem.
what is a good cheap meter.

Thanks for the help
