Too Many Devices

Clodfobble · 08-31-2013, 08:12 AM

We have too many wireless devices in the house on weekends. The minute my stepkids walk in the door with their two phones and an iPod touch, my laptop wireless connection is for shit until the minute they leave. It gets better if I walk around the house and start turning off the connections on various other things, but it seems that for whatever reason my laptop is at the bottom of the pile, the first to get kicked off. (Currently posting from my phone, which never has problems when they're here, by comparison.)

Mr. Clod has been looking into solutions, but so far they're all pieces of hardware that cost upward of $300. Any other suggestions, or experience with this type of problem?
