I've recently had a wireless problem crop up:

my router/modem is in the basement, and I use my laptop on the second floor, 2 stories up. I've always had 3 out of 4 bars for my wireless signal...

the past few days, the signal will suddenly drop out. I have trouble reconnecting, and when I finally do, the connection only lasts for a minute and then drops again. Sometimes, there will still be 2 bars but I can't connect to any websites. If I head to a different part of the second floor, the signal comes back to full and works properly.

does anyone have any ideas as to why this changed? thanks!
