It might night be down to the router at all. Try changing the channel used for wifi, e.g. change it from 6 to 1. There are plenty devices which can cause trouble with wireless networks, such as cordless phones, video senders and so on. Even the neighbours' wifi can interfere with your network if broadcasting on the same channel.
