my wireless isnt as strong as it used to be. and i think (but i really have no idea) that it might be my wireless router

i have a belkin N+ 750 DB router http://www.belkin.com/us/F9K1103/p/P-F9K1103

it was working perfectly never dropped signal never had to be reset practically maintenance free! until i bought a new computer. ive been noticing that on my ps3 i keep getting really bad lag mostly in Call of duty, which is normal but then i started noticing it in more of my games. and then my laptop connects to the internet slowly to and webpages load slow as well. i didnt install the software disc to my new computer wasnt sure if i needed to. is there some way to update something?

is there something i can do to improve the signal let me know. i never had a problem with this router. If its not the router let me know your opinion.

Have you tried connecting via Ethernet cable to see if that makes a difference? If it's much faster, then you may have an issue with the wireless/antenna on the router. Unfortunately the antenna(s) are in built, so you can't replace them it seems.

If you have and it's still slow, report it to your ISP, you may have a fault on the Internet circuit. If they own the router and it's faulty, they may replace it. Otherwise you may have to invest in a new router.
