Same issue -- worked fine for a couple of months and then slow-no reach to where it previously worked. Infuriating, especially given the price of this modem-router.

My issue isn't with a mobile device but with a laptop being used two floors down from the router. Was working fine until a few weeks ago.

Has the signal to the laptop gotten weaker or is it just not connecting? and I would still try what I suggested with the mobile devices with the laptop to see if anything works. also try disabling the password just to test to see if the laptop will connect.
