Sketchy WiFi -outages in Edmonton area?

[wireless]

West Edmonton; Actiontec T2200H Wireless modem/router

Daily occurances - evenings; mid-day, morning, WiFi dies; trouble resetting and getting access restored on laptop and sometimes phone/tablet.
I keep a map of all the devices connected to my router - there is no unauthorized access.
Have followed all the steps in Telus Troubleshooting (checked cables, no interrupters, restarted, reset)
Have logged in to the router and double-checked all WiFi settings. I did try Channel 1, then Channel 11, then returned to Auto.

Internet is really spotty - many "Resolving" and "Waiting for..." messages in the browser status bar. Often, there is a long wait time after clicking a button on a web page.

So - am I special or is there a larger issue in my area...?
