Hey guys,

Now that my router is behaving itself, I've noticed one slight problem. A friend of my brother brought over a laptop the other day and they were trying to use it upstairs but they couldn't get a signal up there. I was just wondering if it's possible to somehow extend the range the signal?

Thanks guys.

New antenna, directional if possible in your setup.

Or a repeater :)

Like Curry said; just get a better antenna. Or, you know, destroy a few ceilings and walls, that'll help.

Try here (http://www.broadbandstuff.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=95), it might help.
