But, and it could be coincidence but it's looking right, things
fare much better when the guy in the shop next door isn't in. I
noted it was generally better after 5.30 and he's been open
sporadically of late and it's great when he's shut.

Now I'm going to run a cable and be done with it but just out of
curiosity, if it is a problem coming from next door, what could it
be?

He sells/repairs mobile phones FWIW.

Remembering the impact of aluminium foil faced insulation on wifi,
maybe consider lining the wall at that end with even simple
supermarket foil?

One that hasn't been mentioned is to use a slightly better quality of
Wifi dongle with a high gain antenna. Morgan have quite a god one for
not very much. I don't know if the new one is as good. The older ones
were excellent for pushing the envelope with WIfi range.


Did you mean the cheaper (not in stock) version of this one?

Yes.

No way of telling if the new model is as good but it might be. Probably
worth a punt for a tenner plus the cost of a USB extender cable.
