    Disable DHCP and give all your computers and devices static IP addresses, disable SSID, turn on mac filtering. Lower the power of your router's antenna, so people can not reach your signal from outside your house or further. Use WPA2 wi-fi protection for all your devices. Make sure NAT for your router is on.

    I had the EXACT same problem and after much frustration, I happened to turn off Protected Mode and switched from Mixed Mode (b and g ) to g only and after saving THOSE changes the connection was back!
