    @lordinanza are you familiar with cellmapper.net? It is a website that tracks cellular tower locations. I counted 7 towers in the area. I did a search for "Poway, CA" and came up with the following image (screenshot). Use the website and put in your address using the menu on the left top portion of the screen. You can see how close (and which direction) your cell tower is in conjunction with your home. 

    There are many reasons why your internet/wifi signal can drop, including the placement of your gateway in conjunction with your cell tower. It's important that your gateway be placed in a direct line with the tower. 

    I hope this helps.
