Strengthen Centrino laptop reception?

[godzilla]

Hi, got one of those Centrino wireless laptops, but I wish I could strengthen the signals for the available wireless networks.

Is there some device that one can buy to increase the reception powers?

if your wireless router is very far away from where your laptop is, you can buy a wireless access point and place it in the middle.

A wireless access point (WAP or AP) is a device that "connects" wireless communication devices together to create a wireless network. The WAP can relay data between devices on each side. Many WAPs can be connected together to create a larger network that allows "roaming".
