Wifi is not actually weaker. If you use wifi analyzer and check the dBm, you'll find them to be around the same.

Signal bars lie.

Thanks Brandon. That helped.
Max, I actually did not refer to bars. I'm sitting in my living room with 2 Valhalla final devices next to my cm7. Both are running streaming media and mine is constantly low signal, losing connection.
I asked FB to make a padded kd1sidekick modem, because that was on those Valhallas, but he said modem file is too big to handle...
