Hello I am clien tof Virgin and using their SuperHub gives me a lot of headache.

I can hardly get a Wi-Fi signal on my laptopn on the room next to the one where the router is. Not to mention the second floor bedrooms. In the one above the room with the router I get a signal, but on the rest sometimes you can not even detect the network.

My question is how to fix that? I do not wan to use powerline networking devices. I was thinking of:

1. swapping the setting of the router.
2. Use a wireless extender like this one - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=NW-030-TP
3. Get a different router with better coverage and put the Virgin one in modem mode.

Any help? I would prefer advices from someone who had the same problem and actually managed to fix it. The house is a 2 floor / 3 bedrooms house.

Thanks
 
You mean several? Can i go with a cheaper WAP? DrayTek AP700 is out of my budget.

Can you explain more, please. I am not really familiar with that stuff.
 
Ok, so if I switch my Virgin SuperHub to modem mode ( cause its Wi-Fi signal is awful ) and plug any decent Wi-Fi Router/Access point to it, I should be able to get better signal?

Any suggestions for a goog AP, not too pricey but with a good signal. with external antennas if possible?
