There can be found a lot of useful tools, tricks & tips on You Tube. I've found and have used a few of them. A few years ago, I tried out and used a lot of the Wi-Fi tricks. The most favorite involved taking a salad bowl and wrapping it in foil, making it look like a satellite dish. Then you took an unused cell phone and wrapped 20 feet of USB cable around it while open (tightly). Then you used one of those wire ties to keep the cable in place, plugged in the cable to your computer, placed it into the bowl and raised your antenna for excellent wi-fi reception. It worked, too. Where I had one bar, it raised it to three or four bars, making for fast browsing and downloading and most importantly, didn't break up.
