Hi all,
I'm looking in to getting a new wireless router as mine is terrible. I can barely get signal only two rooms away from it.
I know NOTHING about these things, so please be nice!
Some information:
- I'm in the UK for a start.
- I'm with AOL (I know, I know - But I live in a tiny village in the middle of nowhere and it's the only ISP available here!)
- I'm using the AOL supplied wireless router, which is a Thompson Speedtouch 576.
- My brothers computer (Windows XP) is the one wired to the router, all other computers (Windows 7 64) are wireless using those Belkin Wireless G USB dongles.
- I get horribly slow speeds all the time and signal is terrible. I am assuming the router is dying on me? I realise of course that I will never get great speeds being stuck in the middle of nowhere, but I used to get much better speeds for everything.
Can anyone give me some advice as to what router to buy? I was thinking £40ish, but I really don't know enough about it to set myself a price point.
Thanks all.
