My wireless router (Linksys WRT54GS) seems to have hit bottom - I'm having to reset it multiple times a day just to get internet. The old one has 2 antennae which I replaced with ugly longer ones and my wireless coverage was not great but OK much of the time. I decided to try a range extender, and being the cheapskate that I am, bought a Belkin for $39. I have 3 squeezeboxes and the furthest one (which of course is in the music room with the best equipment) went from signal strength of around 32% to the mid 40's.
To make a long story shorter, I replaced it with a Linksys WRT100 Rangeplus, expecting wonderful things and my signal strength has gone DOWN to about 15%. The new router has internal antennae, so I can't use my big ugly extensions and I have not connected the Belkin extender. I'm interested in how others have solved similar problems. Do SB's work better with some routers than others, and have any of you found one router or configuration to deal with walls better than others?
