Hi all,
Is the default netgear router ok?

I'm having problems with both PS3 & my work laptop dropping connection.
Router location:
My office hardwired to PC (ethernet cable)
Small hallway, 2 doors to living room where PS3 & laptop are used
PS3 - Playing KZ it will drop mid game saying connection error
Laptop - Even now typing everynow & again it just loses connection. Its showing sig strength as good to excellent.
My 'ThinkVantage Access Connections' software actually shows another 4 neighbours with equal or stronger signal... I live in a detached house with a drive at least to my nearest neighbour.
If I take the laptop upstairs I've got about 7 or 8 other signals, half of them are in the 60% & mine's in the 40% strength mark.
So my re my question, is the netgear any good or is it something else.
Oh yeah, I'm on sky 2nd from bottom package BBand
If you think I need to upgrade, can I? As in will Sky let me & what's a recommended router with some more 'umph'
Many thanks
