    I have orange broadband with the livebox, im getting a laptop therefore using the livebox as a wireless router, just wondering if anyone knows if it will be able to handle the laptop going outside in the garden.

    You're aware that planting the laptop won't make a laptop tree, right?

    All kidding aside, that really depends on several variables. Is the router near the outside wall? What are your walls made out of? Will you be wearing kryptonite undies?

    All of the above (and more) will affect how your signal is outside.
