Hi! I need a strong wireless router, the reason is that in my room my phone (wireless 5.8 GHZ handset) can't get the signal from the base upstairs which is in my parents room. So I'm thinking, if I put a regular wireless router in my room it needs to be strong to penetrate our thick walls.

Is there such a router?

TIA!!!!

But he says he is putting the router in his room, too.

Where is the DSL modem?

Where is the router? (is it the same device as the DSL modem?) Is he even using DSL?

Where is the computer?

There are signal boosters and high gain antenna that can be used (but not with MIMO as far as I know).

router for phone? Er router is not for phone. WHy don't you manually use a fish tape and make a new line through your house wall to your room.
