Well my internet speed is EXTREMELY slow. I'm on the other side of the house. It's a mid sized house with an average amount of walls but still the opposite side. I'm talking a max of 5mps download (speedtest.net). It doesn't even come close to that normally downloads are around 500kbps. And don't even get me started about when I'm gaming.
My room is also on the other side of the house and my mother insists on keeping the modem in her room so she can tell when I connect to the internet. Thus I'm stuck going wireless because I have literally nowhere to drill holes into the wall.
This leaves me with 2 options
1. N router. I have been looking at some routers but I'm not sure as to which router would be one of the better ones on the market. I have never set up a network before. The current one I have was set up by a family member so I was looking for one that is extremely easy to set up (software preferably). I'm not good with networking I'm more into the other hardware aspects of computers. Also what computer would I need to set up this router on? The one connected to the modem?
So basically I need a router that is
-VERY GOOD for gaming
-N or N+ or N++
-EASY set up
2. Set up my own network in my room. This one I'm not to sure about how this would even work and what I would need. Do I need to pay a separate bill every month? I would need a modem right? Could someone tell me what I would need to do if I wanted to go this route?
THANKS I APPRECIATE IT!
