On a normal week night, there are usually three laptops and one desktop simultaneously online. The desk top would be me, and the three laptops would be daughters 2,3 and 4. On weekends, there could be as many as five laptops and a desktop online. If some of my kids' friends drop by, there could be as many as eight laptops all vying for a good signal from my wireless router. My first ever wireless router was store bought. At that time routers were pretty expensive. My second router was provided by my broadband provider. The company could have thought that I deserve a free wireless router since I was paying quite a sum for a residential connection. My connection is quite fast for a broadband. Speed tests show internet speed of 1.5 MB to 2.5 MB. I even had to put a password on my wireless connection for fear that my neighbors are riding on my wifi! But! All is not well. There are times that the laptops barely get signals whereas my desktop ( the one directly connected to the router) enjoys maximum speed. It is the router that is at fault, right? I had steadier and stronger wifi signal with my old Linksys router. I think it would be best to use it again.
