Re: [wireless] Options to Extend My Wireless Connection
WRT54G has a good range too. I am sharing my wireless connection with my cousin 4 houses down. I have kept my router in mixed mode as my cousin uses B devices still. He gets a signal strength of "Good" and some times "Very Good". And yes believe me its going through more than 4 brick walls.
I think it all depends on the environment too, like 2.4Ghz cordless phones, microwave ovens, the way you keep your wireless router (face smacked down or in L shaped style), etc.
Try keeping your router in "L" shaped style, many times it does the job superbly and you can run away from the hassle to buy new stuff, when you already have all the things you need. You just need to fine tune your wireless structure before going into buying new cards and routers.
Well just a suggestion here.
