What kind do you have? i have a WRT300N and get crappy service, i'm goin through 2 or 3 walls but it's only 50 ft. away at most, and it says that walls won't mess up the signal just steel and metal objects.

if u dont wanna spend really any money besides paying a services fee call your internet company and tell them bring you a router or a modem with more ports and it should be free you just need pay a services fee for making them come out. thats what i did and i payed 20 bucks the the little fee and the good thing u dont have to deal with nothi you call and u be there when they come done they set it up plug it up done
