Hi all,
I live in a complex which provides me an awful internet connection.
Each building has his own access point, but the nearest to me gets
disconnected (would you say go down maybe? or inactive?) often, and
comes back in a minute, which is quite annoying,because the other access
points don't have a signal strong enough to let me use the internet
confortably. I have a laptop, I was thinking about buying something to
increase the range of this, for, at least getting the connection to the
other buildings access points, which looks more stable,and even if
not,to swith from one to another which works wouldn't be bad. If then I
get maybe a faster, open connection, also better...
I was thinking about this, '802.11g Wireless USB 2.0 LAN Adapter High
Gain Antenna - (eBay item 200145726236 end time Sep-23-07 12:41:19 PDT)'

It's cheap, even though not the strongest, but also more compact than
others.
Maybe (what do you think?) I could also upgrade the antenna, and R-SMA
antenna look to be much cheaper then USB one. Even though the usb dongle
has RP-SMA (what does this mean, compared to R-SMA?)
What do you think? Sorry for the newbie's questions...but I'm quite
confused.
Any comment and suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Dedalus
