Go to radiolabs.com and look at their antennae. They offer a good selection.
Once you find the one you think you want, try ebay!

If you have a linksys router (or any router that uses the same screw on 
interface), you can just add a higher
gain antennae. Mine is a 12dbi, as I recall. I got it off Ebay for 15.00. You 
can also get firmware from
sveasoft that will allow you to boost signal. I have a 6,000 sq ft multilevel

Hmmm, I can think of a few other reasons:

1. Who would tell you when you are wrong?
2. Who would remind you of all the stupid stuff you did?
3. Who would tell you to take out the garbage?
4. Hmmm, I know there are some other reasons . . . .

driveway, did the grading on the lot, did the interior prime coat painting,
ran the trim, hung the doors, etc. So, I figure she can cut the grass. (Of
course, she made all the curtains, helped lay the tile in the kitchen and
baths, helped on the interior painting, etc. (I couldn't get her to help
with the driveway though) The truth is - we both worked like dogs on this
place. She just happens to like yard work, and riding a lawn mower doesn't
bother her. I do the edging (sometimes).

Hate to confess this, but we have just over a mere 3/4 acre, and my wife
does most of the lawn cutting on our John Deere tractor.  That lets me spend
more time on projects, but I always feel badly.  Then again, she loves to
garden and likes to do the cutting.  Once in a while I steal the task from
her just before she comes home, and that makes me feel guilty about not
working on projects.  So, who wants to analyze that??  ...

If you have a linksys router (or any router that uses the same screw on
interface), you can just add a higher gain antennae. Mine is a 12dbi, as I
recall. I got it off Ebay for 15.00. You can also get firmware from sveasoft
that will allow you to boost signal. I have a 6,000 sq ft multilevel home
and the wireless works everywhere.
