Okay, here's another 'workaround' (though I haven't tested it more than one day yet)
Wifi performance seems to be better & stronger when I changed my network's broadcast channel (It was on auto select before, now I changed it to channel 11 - 2462mhz). I'm living in a populated area, there's a lot of wifi networks around, so that could be one of the problems, I bet most of them are on auto-channel and cheap routers aren't that good in selecting the best frequency, so there's a lot of interference between networks.
The good thing so far is that I'm back on my wireless-N speeds. Will report if something goes wrong.

For what it is worth, I never let my router pick a channel using "auto". Most of
my neighbors are on channel 6, thus I use 1 or 11.
