    Be careful if you do this. It can be against the law. Especially when getting a signal from a private LAN as it is invasion of privacy. Even if it is a free signal from a public place that advertises free hot spot you still may get in trouble because you might have to be a customer of theirs in order to use it. That all depends on local laws, of course.

    Now that is out of the way... They make a 7db external antenna that is nice and should work for what you want. I seen one at Wal-Mart actually.
