Re: extending range of wireless net

["Dave Petrone" <dpetrone@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are sets of antenna available to improve the coverage.  Generally they
offer 7db gain.  I got a set at Radio Shack for $10 recently that really
improved the signal.  You will generally find a set by Linksys that cost
about as much as a wireless router.  The set I got was made by Gigaware.
