About the router, which model D-Link is it? I put in a D-Link DIR-615 when my son came to live here so he could use his netbook. It's not the cheapest, it has 2 antennas, but he still couldn't get a good signal in every part of the house. I had to make reflectors for the antennas and stick the router up above the basement ceiling. There's a steel beam and heating duct that runs the length of the house, which doesn't help. Had I known, I would have spent $80 on a router instead of $40. However, when I got the Vox, I had no problem getting the WiFi to work. All anyone visiting with a tablet or laptop needs to know is the network name and password and they have no trouble getting the WiFi.
