Thanks-that looks like a good idea. Would have worked really well on the
D-link router, may be a bit more of a challenge on the Time Capsule.

Since you're using this in a house which I assume has more than one
computer in it. I would suggest using the refector only on the
computers and not the wireless hub that you have connected to your
router.


I think I can direct the energy in the right directions to serve all of
the computers by angling the reflector correctly.

Course this doesn't apply to the computer you have sitting
next to the hub just plug it straight into one of the wired ports.

Of course, that's been the case since installing the routers.

I have a similar problem as the OP. We can't get our wireless G to
reach
across three rooms (office, through living room to breakfast area), a
distance of about 40 feet. Since replacing the Linksys router with a Time
Capsule, I haven't checked to see if the new router works better yet.
