Can I ask how many square feet the house is? My is well, rather large...

Well, at least my new house will be.

Yeah, microwavable food sucks.

Got it down to **12? : P

Mines much larger. Can you buy another to extend the range. And how many of these suckers will I need (like in sf terms)?

Buy another router? You can get access points that connect to the Router and merely extend the range. You could also try range extenders...little things you plug into unused wall sockets to increase range.

Which work the best? Having routers all around seems obtrusive.

Having multiple routers around would be difficult. What you need is access points. You can get two cheap Belkin54g access point/routers from Wal-Mart (ughhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!) Just make sure to configure them for access point mode only.

How much range will that cover? Like I said, this house is...big.

Probably three or four would do fine.

If your house is two storeys, than

2 upstairs on each side of the house,
2 downstairs on each side of the house.

It's two stories plus a full basement 12k sf on each floor. One on each floor (plus basement) will do it?
