What kinda gear can I buy that will (significantly?) boost the signal?

Because this is starting to piss me off.

Cheers guys

something like that

omg
my friend just moved to chicago for school and his house isn't rigged for internet, but he found out his school has dialup
but he doesn't have a land-line
so he connects to his phone with bluetooth, then dials the dialup number with his phone
he's running at about 14.4

Ah, so that's what I need? Sweet. I didn't know exactly what to call it. That looks like it'll do the job!

Unles someone has a better idea? Because, well, Mezz likes Saabs and that.... You know.

i bought this not too long ago, and all you do is replace the original antenna that your router came with, with this one and you should get some good results.
