Thanks for your suggestions.

I am using the Tomato firmware which is similar to DD-WRT.
To reduce power consumption and add security I reduced the Wi-Fi transmit power and reduced the time that Wi-Fi is enabled.
On my router I reduced the transmit power from 42mW to 30mW and disabled wireless from 12PM to 5AM.
My router is a Linksys WRT54G V2.0 with Tomato 1.28.
