Not that this has anything to do with the .NET Framework or with
programming, but you need a better router. There are routers available that
have built in range boosting components, along with speed enhancing
circuitry. Many claim a 2x - 3x range increase over standard routers.

There's much cheaper solutions. I highly recommend Asian cookware.

Alternatively, some aluminium foil and basic mathematics will suffice.
