Thanks so much for sharing these ideas with me. Your directions were very clear, so it was easy for me to try each thing. I tried them each and with various combinations, and my wireless strength (Squeezecenter on laptop > Settings > Status) remained at today's new low of 21 throughout. Just to confirm, I did click "save settings" in my router's interface for each change that I made. Also, my set-up does include my WHS (MediaSmart server) being connected to my router via ethernet. The wireless part for me is from router to SBR. I just don't understand why our laptops can stream music from the server (using Softsqueeze or MediaMonkey) while the SBR cannot. Please feel free to share any other ideas with me.
