Some time when u roaming around our house, you will found that the WIFI signal will drop in different location, probably is that location have some distance between your Wifi Access Point(AP) and your WIFI receiver.
To overcome this limitation, few thing you can take, either change the Antenna to a higher decibels(The unit for measuring the relative strength of a signal) or install booster.
Booster and the Antenna are expensive, to be more budget, here come a DIY booster that enable you to get higher signal strength for your WIFI signal.

This is not a joke, it really give some extra strength, i remember last time when i Uni time, i study before a book about WIFI, and it also have some example of using the recycle springle Aluminium container as the booster

this is a small version of enhancement only. Actually, this thing has been around for quite soe times. I bookmark few page that talked about Wifi enhancement @ http://www.blinklist.com/pelam/poorman%20wifi/ .
Personally, I used to enhance my wifi receiver before I got streamyx at my house. I used it to steal my neighbor’s signal. wuahaha. very effective.
