It's not good to use an A,B or G Router with a new 'N' PC or Lappy.
The signal is poor.
It's like trying to force-fit a V8 into a Mini
Hi, Have a concern on above but if you can clarify it would be good, Generally wireless communications is 2 way so if the N work better to A, B & G wireless. Would it conclude that the transmission from the PC aren't forward compatible and would suffer in that direction.

I only ask as I have a wireless "N" router as well and found there is no change to the range in our installation. It maybe possible that you had a previously bad router before upgrading the "N". All 5 of my PC's and Laptops at "G".
