Re: What could I use to boost my wireless signal..

54 mbps won't do anything to strengthen the received signal, especially on the periphery of the range.

To better focus the signal in the the desired direction, you can try adjusting the antenna elements on the router or moving it to a better location. You can also try a reflector, links for which are posted almost daily - about the frequency with which this question is asked. A search will tell you more.

Change channels on the router and turn off any 2.4GHz phones to help work around any potential interference.

Should you exhaust the free or nearly-free possibilities without results, post back for some alternate equipment advice.
