Internet speed Issue

Hi Folks
I wonder if anyone could give me a few words of wisdom about routers v wireless.
We are rural so have dsn connection at around 6mb/s due to line limitations.
I had a netgear Dgn2000 router which was working fine but I was starting to have issues with cold spots and speed as more of the family was connecting. 4 iPhones, 4 laptops, 1 IPad, Xbox tv etc. so decided to try a new router.
I purchased a netgear dual band hi speed unit Dgn gn3700 and installed it without any snags. The problem is the range is no better and in some areas worse and the speed is significantly slower than the old one currently .2mb/s!
Any ideas on how to improve performance?
