		<description>I don&#039;t know about anyone else but the last one worked for me it got me signal strength from low to very good... that sorts my issue out.</description>

		<description>I upgraded from G to N (Cisco) and found zero differences.  There should simply be a real signal booster to purchase, rated honestly, like 10 watts (mw is hardly enough).</description>

		<description>my router is in the kitchen, next to the wireless phone hub, 3 feet from the microwave and in front of the sliding glass door leading to the backyard.

anyways, here&#039;s how i got my wireless signal from 70% to 100%.

1. i bought a corner shelf for the wall (http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&amp;productId=100546138&amp;langId=-1&amp;catalogId=10053&amp;ci_src=14110944&amp;ci_sku=100546138&amp;cm_mmc=shopping-_-googlebase-_-D23X-_-100546138).

2. placed the router on the shelf.

3. taped tinfoil to wall behind router, so it acts as a directional tool.

what is happening is that before, i was (and everybody else is as well), losing x% of my wireless signal out the backend of my house (especially through the sliding glass door).  now, the tinfoil reflects the wifi signal back into the house.  no signal loss = full signal.  makes sense, doesn&#039;t it?  what&#039;s the use in letting half the signal go outside.

i now get 100% signal throughout my house (upstairs, downstairs, anywhere), and it never varies.</description>

		<description>I found this with wireless too doing a ping -t at the commandline revealed that my throughput was OK but they were dropouts at regular intervals. Having tried a zillion things I am resigned myself to the fact that this is the way with wireless right now.

I currently Have a second router setup as a wired bridge so that my main PC and Xbox are wired but I still have the benefit of wireless throughout the house.</description>

		<description>P.S. wireless technology works just like the human voice.  When speaking to someone you automatically know to turn towards them and your voice is projected in that direction and therefore louder to the recipient than if you were to talk facing away. These tinfoil antenna&#039;s allow you to face your wireless devices towards each other, so when they talk they can hear each other better.  The tinfoil also blocks out some interference from other equipment  behind the tinfoil, such as electrical boxes and other wireless devices, much like putting up cubicles at work to keep noise levels down, that way you don&#039;t have to scream at the guy next to you hold a simple conversation.</description>
