Hey. I had a Belkin Wireless ADSL Router and it was great until it stopped working. Basically, with that router, upstairs in my house I would get full bars with a and g access. I just purchased a Netgear WGT624 and I get no reception upstairs where I used to get full bars with my Belkin

Does anyone know why?
Nothing has changed and this happens betewen two different computers

My guess is that the Belkin was either more powerful or your Netgear is broadcasting on a channel that has a lot of interference or is different than your Belkin. Not sure what those broadcast on default channels, but I know Linksys does it on channel 6.
