At my router I have 54 MBs but in another room I get from 2 to 12 MBs.
How can I improve reception?

What kind of construction is between the router and your phone? Walls, plumbing, electrical, etc all weaken the wifi signal. You might want to consider relocating the router to a more central location or add a repeater or booster to rebroadcast the wifi signal in the location where it is currently weak.

The walls are plaster lathe.
Can't relocate router. It is hard wired to a computer.

SKYHAWK36, we want you to enjoy your phone even when connected to Wi-Fi. We're here to help. Are you referring to FiOS service?

What kind of router do you have? What is your internet speed package. Also not sure what wi-fi has to do with cell phone service.

- Move router around until you get better signal in the other room.
- Buy us a new high end router with multiple antennas for improved reach

Cell service is okay. Just WIFI very weak downstairs.
I remember it being much stronger a Few months ago. At the router I am at 54. But downstairs it's between 1 and 12.

SKYHAWK36,
Having a great connection is always important. We completely understand wanting the signal to be as strong as possible. If the signal your WiFi router is providing seems to be diminished, I would recommend reachinig out to your WiFi service provider to see if there's something they can do for you. Perhaps they can increase your package speed or provide you a more effective router. Other suggestions folks have made here may also help. Unfortunately, there won't be anything we can do to change the reach or performance of your WiFi service as a cellular provider. We wish you the best.

Ok so you get your internet through Verizon Wireless. That router is older than dirt and is only wireless G. I would upgrade to something newer.
