Free WIFI Signal Booster

After moving to this new house, it is very hard to wire the Lan cable around to get broadband connected! My house mate suggested me to give wireless a try! This is not my first time to use wifi, but to be honest, I really didn't quite trust its stability! After using it for 2 days, I really changed my mind! The WIFI g standard is quite stable and fast.

Although I really cannot feel the lag, I still want to give the WIFI signal some boost! After some search, I found this Top 10 Wi-Fi Boosts, Tweaks and Apps, the second one is what I was looking for! It leads me to this website: FreeAntennas.com. Yes, that's the thing I need! So I made two of such antennas and give them a try! they work like a charm! The Wifi speed stayed below 40Mbps before, but now can stay in the peak level of 54Mbps.

Update: From Here, I learned that I can put one of the reflector on the receiver side. So here we go:

The result is even more amazing, the signal strength boosts from 65% to 85% and stays over there!
