Hate to state the obvious, but ensure that any antennas for either the desktop or the ActionTec are connected completely. Signal range drops by a ton if they are not attached. If Antennas are connected properly, you can try changing the wireless channel the ActionTec operates on by visiting http://192.168.1.1/ . Channels 1, 6, and 11 are the best. To rule out the PC as being the issue, have you also checked the signal strength on other devices?

Should you need a log-in for the modem, try the following:

admin/password

admin/password1
