Wireless internet problem - only works while sat on sofa in lounge!?

Even when sat right next to the router, and in my room, it has 5/5 signal but once connected will disconnect itself again after about 5 secs, then takes about 10 attempts at connecting to get an internet connection again.

Other laptops work fine with it, and my laptop works fine with other routers.

Whilst sat on the lounge sofa it works fine though!

I have tried turning the router off for 3 mins then back on again and restarting the laptop.

The laptop is an Acer Aspire 5633 and router is Belkin.

Any help would be much appreciated, otherwise im going to have to go get an ethernet cable and try using that.

Thankyou so much to anyone who can solve this, feel free to email me if you want to ask anything.
 
Get the latest driver for your wireless device on the Acer laptop

Try a different channel "say ch6" on the wireless router instead of the default.
