Price is certainly a factor but age has nothing to do with it. There are many high-quality systems (notebook and PCs) today with integrated...
Of course there is a downside to extended range - a bad guy can sit down the street instead of out front and hack your network, if you have not...
It is not likely something was shorted, but burned "open ", if the storm had anything to do with it. It sounds like a communication (handshaking)...
Unless you spend the extra money for a "Simultaneous" Dual-Band Wireless Router, such as this Netgear. These are essentially two wireless...
