Its in a room one wall away from the area where he wants sit with his 
vista laptop and use it. In a straight line, maybe 8-10 metres.
The wall appears to be standard issue modern house construction ( no 
visible concrete/steel/corrugated iron )
You can sit in the same room as the router and use the net fine - leave 
the room and the connection ( while still reading 90% connectivity ) 
drops out as soon as you try to do anything.
When you try to reconnect, the router is no longer detected ( all of the 
neighbors ones are still visible though ) so you take the lappy back 
into the router room and still nothing. Pushing the wireless button on 
the front of the router seems to kick it back into life and you can now 
detect it and connect...
