I've been pondering what to do with my wireless network, and I was wondering if I could get some input on my problem... I have a Linksys WRT54G setup in the center of my house, and most of my computers get decent reception anywhere in the house. The only problem is the room that is right on the edge of my house; I get a signal, however it goes in and out. I'd like to extend the range/reach of my WiFi network so that the connection is more reliable.
I have an old DLink AP900+ which supports repeating, but I wasn't sure how well repeating would work.
My other options I suppose would be to either buy a new antenna or two, or buy a second WRT54 ... I'd love to opt for the later, however even at ~$40 it's a little more than I'd like to spend if my AP900+ will do the job just as well ...
So any input? Should I use the repeater I have or would I see better results from either an antenna upgrade or a second WRT54?
Thanks,
