Getting a really weak signal from my router
I have a D-LINK DI-624 Wireless router and am getting a REALLY weak signal from it. Im trying to connect my Xbox 360 to it, but the wireless adapter connected to the xbox does not get a signal from it unless its like 5 feet away or closer. Even when its 5 feet from the router it gets a weak signal. It only gets a good signal when the router is right next to the xbox.

Chances are the radio is damaged. Call DLink's tech support and see if you can get it RMAed

Returned Merchandise Authorization. If your D=Link is under warranty contact them & you will be given a RMA number & the procedure for sending it back.

Not really. Normally I would say a firmware upgrade might help, but if the radio doesn't even work at 5 feet I would say the radios is shot.
