Re: what router?
How much range are they suspose to have?
I've the netgear DG834G v2 downstairs direct connection with PC and then wireless my laptop and the the kids 2 Pc's up stairs. only probablem so far is my sons Belkin wireless card seams to disable itself when you turn the pc off, when you turn it back on again you have to re-connect it via the 128 bit encyption password thingy...

Re: what router?
my dad also has the same netgear one and his laptop works down the bottom of his garden? maybe the wii console needs a very strong signal to work.

Re: what router?
You need to look at the antennae design. You may find that the horizontal angle does not allow for max signal from upstairs to down.
Graphs would normally show two patterns, the radial signal and a horizontal signal with deviation from the horizontal.
