I would not step inside your room, at all. I hate anything above 72F in the summer and below 72F in the winter.

kitamesume:
its not my room, its the living room =O
this country is a tropical country so it's more common to have it hot =D
although i wonder how people get to endure it on Egypt with their 35-45c temperature climates.

Slysoft:
Wireless G is two standards old now. Time to move on in my book.

kitamesume:
^wireless N is the minimum now a days, and wireless AC seems to be the new thing.

so no serious suggestions?

go there and find a compatable router and then flash that onto it. It's an open source firmware that strives for stability and performance and is usually way better than the stuff pre installed on the routers. It supports a ton of routers but not all so check their compatibility list.

that asus router is compatible and will probably run just fine, especially with the dd-wrt firmware (my router signal went from ~35% to 100% with this firmware)

I second this. My Linksys WRT-54G (the really good model before they changed it) was amazing with DD-WRT.

Google though, cause I know they changed the model and one of them sucks, so make sure you don't get something bad.
