Hi guys, Just wondering if anyone could give me advice on how much
boost I need to give my wireless network a little more range from room
to room. I know there an awful lot of variables involved here but just
advice in general is all I am after, what has worked for other people
basically. Thanks

You have to specify what gear you are using at the base and in the
clients, as well as what the layout of the network is, ie, multi
story or not, walls, etc. AP/router in the middle of the house or
end...

A generalized, rough and perhaps incorrect answer is:

1) try making some simple reflectors - google "ez-10 reflector"
2) get things up high enough to make sure it's not behind metal
3) get some high gain rubber duck antennas (omnis).
