Wireless internet, what to get?

[shenanigans]

hey guys moving into the new place, its 2 stories, and there are 3 computers, I wanna go to a wireless setup, what is the way to go. We have roadrunner, and just want something strong enough to run upstairs, and to the back bedrooms. Place is built pretty decently so may need to be decently powerful to make it through walls.

Also where is the best place to hook up the wireless router, upstairs, down, etc...

I think I recall reading somewhere that the signal is strongest below the AP, so upstairs would be the best place for it. I know it works well in my home.

I think you got it confused.

The higher the antenna, the farther the range. Think radio and TV towers. I have mine sitting pretty high, almost to the ceiling in my house, and I can go like 3 houses down.
