My main computer with cable internet modem is downstairs. I have a new pc upstairs with wireless capabilities... we have tried 3 different routers and hardly get any signal strength upstairs (maybe at 6 AM for about 30 minutes). We also tried adding a second modem upstairs, but the two keep resetting each other... think the cable guy would have known that one). I don't want to split the signal and run a cable upstairs around baseboards, over doors etc. Any suggestions?? I also acquired a netbook and want to be able to catch a wireless signal when I'm downstairs with it as well. What are my options??? Purchasing a wireless card(for the laptop)from my cell provider is out, they want $60 a month for that service, plus $50 for the card and cable!!! I also plan on moving the old pc upstairs (which would move the modem upstairs) and bringing the new pc downstairs. Do wireless signals "fall" down better than going up??
I'm a female so be patient with me, but evidently 3 men have been stumped as well when they came over to help me set this up, 4 different times with different routers. HELP!!!
