Aye, I'd also say go for the cable if possible. At least to nail down wireless as the problem.
If you want to help the wireless situation there are a number of steps but start by surveying for interference. At minimum check for the best signal strength on channels 1, 6, and 11. Choosing among those will give you the best chance of avoiding neighbors. Try your landline 2.4GHz phones and microwaves during tests to see how they affect reception on each channel.

There are a vast number of people who are uninformed and heavily propagandized, but fundamentally decent. The propaganda that inundates them is effective when unchallenged, but much of it goes only skin deep. If they can be brought to raise questions and apply their decent instincts and basic intelligence, many people quickly escape the confines of the doctrinal system and are willing to do something to help others who are really suffering and oppressed." -Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media, p. 195
