  1. Boosting wireless from an antenna by mrtroy · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    This is slightly off this topic, but in the wireless realm.

    How do I go about boosting my reception with an antenna...a la pringles can? Specifically, is it possible with an internal laptop wireless card?

    Or is it possible to boost my router's pickup?

    Any websites or advice would be appreciated...thanks!
