Concerned about signal strength

Right off the assembly line
I recently purchased this: *www.flipkart.com/d-link-dsl-2750u-wireless-n-adsl2-4-port-wi-fi-router/ as i migrated from mtnl too airtel with a 4Mbps plan (i exceeded my download limit so the speed is 0.59Mbps, if that matters)

and installed inSSIDer Home on my laptop to check for a weak and "hot" spots.

I was concerned to see that my first floor and second floor neighbors who seem to have shitty routers with low "max rate" have higher signal strength. network.jpg

this screenshot with the router next to my laptop. Could someone explain to me what is happening? I am a noob when it comes to networking. Thanks a lot in advance :)
