    I went ahead and "paper clipped" the router and based on signal strength as measured by TIVO things improved considerably. I'm now at 50% which I've never seen before. My hardwired speed has not changed either. SweetSpot measures 86 Mbps @ nearest laptop, to 19 at the TIVO. I can live with that...

     

    Thanks for all the help.

Same thing really. The first bit is what matters.
