Hi. I am new to networking. I want to extend my router's range (D-Link 514)
to wirelessly connect from my desktop's cable internet connection to my laptop in a small building behind my house. The signal is very weak out there. I have looked all over for info about an antenna for it but can only seem to find info on later D-Link routers. Does anyone know of a signal booster antenna or other hardware that will work with this router? Thanks! Lauren |

You could used a gain antenna. Found something like this on Compusa
"Hi Gain 6dB Omni-Directional Wireless Antenna, 802.11b, g" Will improve your range. Just move it closer to outside building and there ya go. "Lauren" wrote: > Hi. I am new to networking.
