Alex i 2 tried the same thing wid my laptop ... i use to do the same thing .. Even i had a poor signal .. but only advantage was tht it was free of cost
 so i used it any how .. even my question remains the same ; tht how could u increase the range of ur laptop or snatch the range of the network Wireless LAN ?? i m too very curious to know bout this !!
Well, if you happen to know where the wireless router is located then getting your laptop/wireless receiver as close to that as possible would help of course. Also, you can buy a USB network adapter with an external antenna to extend your range. If you choose to go that route I'd suggest researching which ones people have found most effective.
Also try placing the router at the highest point of the room/house. This ensures that minimal obstruction between your laptop and the router.
Try changing your frequency channel. The default of channel 6 sometimes interferes with cordless and some cellphone signals.
There are antennas you can buy. Go look at CCRANE and check out their gear. It's not cheap, but it works and, hey, you can use all that money you're saving on monthly internet service and buy a nice antenna. With a good antenna you'll probably have more options too just in case your neighbor gets sick of paying for your internet.
Listen, but the link which you gave me do not concern wireless antennas!

I thought of an ingenious idea, and this is based off a walk through of this school I was applying a job for. They had connected several WIFI routers together within their network in order to boost a wifi signal all over the school, and so if you had a second router connected to this network and closer to you, then your signal should boost a bit. But, expect the connection to be a bit slow because of all those packets needing to travel through 2 routers (if your neighbor has one), before getting to the internet connection. It would cost about the same as an antennae, but if you are not like 6 feet from your neighbor so you don't have to buy 100 foot RJ45 cable and people tripping over it and stuff.
Or Tell your neigh to move the router next to a window or something to help boost the signal.
Get a "booster" that receives their signal and re-broadcasts it with a stronger signal???

Anymore suggestions?!

You first install the wireless adapter ofcoarse just got to add that in okay next cut the bottle about one inch from the bottom cut the whole bottom off throw away the top its not needed cut a spot into the bottom of the bottom peice just big enough for the wireless adapter to fit in tightly what you have just created was the frame for the wireless dish as I'm gonna call it now take some tape and alumium foil and mold the alumiun around the the plastic bottle peice and secure with tape do not put tape in the middle of the dish unless its under the aluminuim you can do that by making it double sided by folding the tape wher its sticky on all sides but after this put the wireless adapter in to the dish wher it comes thru the middle and thru the aluminum foil the aluminuim foil around the wireless adapter now you have a complete wireless dish which will extend the range of the wireless receivver now if you have the usb extender you can plug the dish in to it and now its 1-3ft away from the computer you can put the"wireless Dish" in a window pointing towards the direction you get the connection strongest and bam this worked for me and now for you xbox360 user the two process to help in you get a connection from your neighbors 1ST~~~ you go thru the above process and share the connection using ethernet cord from computer to xbox aloowing you be able to place the sattelite closer to the source depending on the length of your ethernet cord now second option(required usb extender and xbox360 wireless adapter) hooke the extender to the xbox and then plug the receiver into the extender and if you want but not nessary you can build a dish for the xbox receiver but it really isnt needed you can take the receiver place towards the the strogest connection and wah lah lag free xbox live without pay for your internet if this helped in any way or need pictures and a walkthrough I will proudly help just email me at the email above thanks for taking the time in reading this tutorial I hope it helps it works great for me ! please feel free to message anytime! I can help in many of other "freeloading" problems also. -reply by neverpaidfornet
Well the only reason your connection is low because there are many obstructions in the way.
If you knew where the router was you could go nearer too it such as if the neighbours router was in the downstairs front room you could do the same with your laptop, get the idea? You could always buy broadband though lol. 
Do you know how I can pass wireless security settings?
Thanks, I got it and going to download it!

When you click the link I specified before http://www.intel.com/network/connectivity/...et_software.htm You will see 4 tabs at the middle top. Click "Tools & Software". You will see 2 new links. Click Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software Download Or directly click here http://support.intel.com/support/wireless/...b/CS-010623.htm In the new page download the product which matches your adapter.
