[help] wifi !!

Strange. I tend to get neighbors signals from down the street. How old is the router?
 
the idea is basically to improve the laptop signal, either by an antenna or smthing similar...
 
Yes, but only with external antenna connector. You can always buy stronger antenna. That's long-distance thinking ;)

what u mean by buying a stronger antenna, an antenna for what?
I currently have nothing expect the laptop...

If you buy wifi adapter with external out for antenna connector, you can buy also stronger antenna and connect it to wifi adapter if the one in package is not enough.
 
So that means I should buy an external USB WIFI ADAPTER for my laptop (to receive more & stronger signals). If that's not enough I should get myself a stronger antenna or DIY an antenna for the external adapter right?
 
I bought this one,and i can receive signal sometimes from even 100-200 meters.
I would give it a try. :)

That's correct. But first if you have opportunity u can borrow this stuff from your friends in dormitory and try to connect. Then go for shopping.
 
Sorry for all the trouble guys.

I actually had an UTP input in my room ... it was hidden so I could've never noticed until a guy told me about it ... -.-'
 
what about an USB WIfi Adapter?

With a 25 foot or thereabouts USB extensor cord and you're done. One end of the cord goes into your laptop, the other end in your USB adapter and use multiple strips of cellophane tape to tape the adapter to highspot on your window (keep laptop near window also, if possible) and you're digi! :p
