Hi guys.
Don't have a problem surfing with wi-fi but I do find problems actually scanning to pick up a wi-fi unless I'm almost on top of the router. Not just finding this on my own router, but virtually everywhere I try to connect to one.

Running a stock HTC Hero, firmware 1.5, software 1.0.0.A6288, kernel 2.73.61.66
Using an Orange Livebox router with no problems other than when using the Hero

Seems to me that the Hero has a very poor signal for wi-fi as unless I am very close to the router, it doesn't see it. From the lounge to the hallway it can't see it, when a Nokia and a Samsung both have good signal strength on wi-fi.

Does anyone else have problems like this?
