![]() Personally, I went through numerous routers over a period of a couple years. They would all fail and give me problems after 14 or 18 months. Netgear, Belkin, others. I splurged and bought an Apple Airport base station and haven't looked back. It's been running flawlessly for something like 5 years now. Well worth the money.

![]() Do yourself a favor, before you spend money on new hardware make sure that this one configured properly. On your laptop (or any computer with a WiFi adapter) download and install INSSIDER from this location http://www.metageek.net/support/down...er-for-home%2F
Run it, you will see all of the wireless networks within range of you and what channel they're on. I suspect that most of them will be on channel 6 (which yours is probably on) and they are clobbering your connection. Find the best channel (1, 6, or 11) with the least amount of traffic on it and change your router to that channel, will probably take care of your issues. |

Thanks but already tried :\ At my old complex switching channels seemed to help quite abit, but here ive had no luck. Still hoping a new router will be a fix all.

And the new taller airports have even better antenna. Maybe you have interference from something else? I find my microwave interferes with it a lot. |

My microwave only runs when I'm standing in front of it so it's not likely what's causing my issues. |

![]() Just hooked up the asus and holy crap this thing is night and day from the old dlink. Great signal strength on all devices even going through multiple walls and a well isolated floor. I got the netgear adapter online but cant log on to the apex for some reason. Maybe because the asus has uses adresses 192.168.1.xxx and the dlink used 192.168.0.xxx....... this might be complicated now because i dont have the actual display controller with my apex system, i have my weekend project.
