We had an older westel modem connected to a linksys broadband router and never had connection problems. Speed seemed to be slowing so we switched to a new 2wire combo modem and router, and things are much worse. Erratic speed, does not reach through half of house and my Mac desktop will not connect wirelessly at all. We upgraded based on AT&T service persons suggestion and now nothing but headaches with our plan and router

What sort of security settings are you using for your wireless connections? Certain settings can greatly reduce the wireless range of some gaeways/modems--I'd try everything with *no security* first , just to test things out. And, of course, if the settings on your wireless devices do not correspond to what the gateway expects--you won't be able to connect at all.
