Wifi morning evening signal strength
I have wifi adapter that catch the signal from a omni wifi AP. Durning the day, I don't get any signal and in the evening, I get 20% signal strength.

What is the reason for the morning drop?

Sounds like wireless interference of some kind. Have you tried changing channels?

I have channel 11 set. I get better result when I set it to auto. However, in this case, channel 12 or 13 are choosen which not all devices suppport.

If those signals are all the same strength then I'd guess that 3, 4 and 9 would be your best choices to try.
