i have a linksys wireless G router that i use for wireless net connection with my laptop. the router is located in an upstairs bedroom and the laptop sits in the living room. the problem im having is that the laptop will get a lot of dropouts and will loose the net connection.

do you guys have any tips on making this connection more realiable? anyone ever buy a range expander? how well do they work ?

I set the network up in the mansion behind the fuzzy pic in my profile using a Linksys Wireless G router. The router sits on the second floor and I could stay connected anywhere including where my car sits.
