I currently have my cable modem running through a Linksys wireless router sending a signal to a Linksys USB adapter. About a week ago my signal became extremely comprimised. I took my computer downstairs and hardwired it through the router and my connection was good. I then set up the computer using wireless connections and it was fine while the computer is a couple of feet from the router. As soon as I hook up my computer upstairs the signal is weak. Is there any way to test if the problem is with the router or the adapter? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,

If you have any wireless devices that would interupt with your wireless router.So make sure all wireless devices like cordless phones & microwave ovens are turned off.Also You can login to the web interface & try changing channels either 1 or 6 or 11.Then you can check the wireless connectivity.Hope that shud work.
