there are lots of theing that interfere with your signal.. Steel beams, walls in general, hell even the weather. Not to mention cordless phones, microwaves, and various other electronics. You're probably getting any combination of these along with the distance.. Set up next to the transmitter and see how it works.. then work on eliminating each piece from there.. I have a few ibooks, i Titamium, and several PCs all running to an airport base station at work (I use netgear at home, with my ibook, and alienware laptop) and get equally good reception regardless of the machine.. IT usualy tend to be the environment. there are only a few really crappy brands of cards out there..
DLink is one of them IMHO.
