587751 2007-09-04 02:53:00 Long story short, I lost the antenna to my modem. Needless to say, I can no longer pick up the wireless signal on my laptop unless I am in 4 feet of the modem. Is anything I can do to increase the signal strength so that I can pick up the signal the way I used to? alsoslick (10137)

This (www.trademe.co.nz) is an eample of what you can get reasonably cheaply.
