Hello to you all!
I would like to hear some advices from you about how I can improve the signal quality of wi-fi. You see, I would like to save money and catch wi-fi for free. I have already caught two signals, but they are very poor. One gives about 10% and another 2%, and sometimes even disappears. I will be grateful if you can recommend me any methods for increasing the signal.
Thank you!

Do tell us here, whether you able to solve the Wi-Fi signal problem, after you've followed the youtube video steps or not...

thank you willyoumind, you posted an interesting information. I will also try it, but first, I gotta buy a wifi adapter.

When you get yourself a wifi booster, you need to be sure that it works both ways: for boosting upload and download speed at the same time. Most of them are only increasing the upload speed, which makes these boxes a waste of money and time.

wifi booster? What is it? Can you post a picture of it? Is it expensive?

[Karl.in.eu]

Wifi booster is a device designed to increase the strength of the wifi signal.

here are other options of home-made wifi boosters

If you're good and really interested in boosting your wifi signal, just follow the instructions of this man

you can try a parabolic dish, it usually helps boosting the wifi signal by up to 300%. Not difficult to do it, just spend some money on parabolic dish, it costs about $50-80

[Faw_Peter]

Instead of spending money for those expensive parabolic antennas, why don't you buy a better router with strong built-in antennas? It's more efficient and it takes less space in the room.

Netgear now have many powerline extenders that send a signal via a powerline, instead of over an Ethernet cable. Plug one into your router and another into a power socket in a poorly-covered area, set it up. Just be sure that you are all on the same circuit, otherwise it will not work.
