I think this is in the right section so here goes:
OK- this Dlink 655 is useless lately - about 1 year old and started dropped wireless signal every few hours a few weeks ago. I have been on the phone to Dlink 2 times and each time they were very nice and took me thru the setting screen - but of coarse the 2 techs completely disagreed on some of the settings to use.... hmmm . Guess what- neither of the new setting helped at all. Do these things just get old and fail?? Anyhow- need a wireless router that can get thru walls and into a basement and up a floor ( router is on main floor). Teenage boys have PS3/Xbox in their rooms ( one downstairs and one upstairs) and need a decent wireless signal. Suggestions and /or remedies appreciated. Willing to spend $150 on a new wireless router is necessary. Or should I get "boosters" in the basement and 2nd floor?
