Default My router is giving worst wifi range

Hi,

I got this router few weeks back. It was working fine all these days, the wifi range was very good.
But now I am facing issues with its WIFI range. It detects 2.4G and 5 G only if I am very close to the router ( 1 to 2 meters ), and the signal strength is also very bad.

I tried hardware reset, upgraded to new firmware 3.0.0.4.266, also detached and reconnected the antennas. But this problem still exists.

Can you please help me in resolving this problem?

Regards,
DJ
