Wireless Router - Longer Range

QatRox
By QatRox

We cannot reach the internet from all the rooms in our house. I am thinking to replace the Qtel provided router (Thomson) with a more powerful one. We also have Mozaic subscription. Can anyone recommend a powerful router that is easy to setup and can be found in Qatar?

Consider relocating your router to a more central position or even buying a wi fi range expander.

Thank you all for the suggestions.. should the fact that I also have Mozaic make any difference? Because the a sales guy in a major store told me that Linksys would not be compatible with Mozaic?

The best long range router is undoubtedly a wireless N router and i.e D-Link DIR-825/N or Linksys WRT54GL or WRT54G,( thanks2 Bluepanther for sugg)

you can do some twiks and try if it works, in most cases it works.

- Open the router's administration tool & log on and make below changes

- Update the MAC address of the router (i prefer using MAc address)

- Set the channel range upto 11

- Secure your router and ensure that you use wireless encryption and/or MAC filtering and check it

Beside you can place a router after configuring with Wi-Fi tools where you get more signal. Try - inSSIDer 2

wifi tool (open source software) and track the chance. Good Luck !
