Right have internet in the living room at the phone point, get the full 5 bars (full signal) on the laptop and computer and xbox and PS3 but when i move the laptop and game consoles into the bedroom the signal goes down too 2 bars on the laptop and cant connect at all on to xbox live or PSN so woundering if i could get a router that connects to the internet from the living room too the bedroom and have a booster to make the connection more ranged and quicker iv seen it done before but need abit of advice about it first for more of what im looking into PM me if you know what im talking about.

Thanks

Could you not use a network home plug, something like this.

Its quicker if you have it in the room you want it in, better connection aswell and faster plus can wire everything up which means faster internet speed specialy seen as me being a gamer which why im looking into it but as i said need advice

You might not need something like that.

 

How many other wireless networks can you detect on your laptop?

You may be broadcasting on a conflicting channel to one of your neighbours.

 

When I'm setting up wireless networks, I use Wifi Analyser on my android phone, select the new access point I've configured and it will tell me which channel is the best one to be on based on a site survey.

Auto channel allocation doesn't always work.
