    My master plan is to live forever..... going to plan so far
    Despite the cost of living, it's still very popular.
    No good deed goes unpunished....

      i do not have a internet account so dont really need 1.....

      plus i think a home plug only works in your own house

        Ok first of all thanks for the response's
        No I have not fixed my problem as of yet but I will look into all the options that you guys have given me.
        Also DO NOT try the ?TV aerial to TV aerial? via piece of coaxial cable this dose not work. Also I found out this weekend. I went and brought two aerials costing ?40 connected them via coaxial cable once of them pointing at a small cluster of mobile phone masts in a local town the other pointed directly at my mobile phone and now one bit of difference. It cost ?40 for nothing to not try it. I never thought it would work but I was willing to try anything. As for the wifi what I might do is buy a cheap router on ebay with detachable aerials and buy some super strong ones and super strong repeaters see how that goes.
        Cheers guys.

          I have already try the external antenna to boost the wi-fi signal, it doesnt work instead it drop the signal
          I use TP-link router and an external antenna with 3 feet long, it doesnt work, instead the signal drop and cannot reach in the third floor of our building, but the orig antenna of my router reach 2 bar in the 3rd floor

          I plan to purchase the outdoor AP like in the picture in Solwise website ,but the brand is not a solwise I think its clone but this is the one available here in my country
          I will post the result when I bought

            Try putting the wireless router in different locations in the house, at different heights.

            You may also want to try one of those newer N routers as these have better coverage than the older B/G routers.

            Try different channels that the wireless router broadcasts on as well. Channels 1, 6 and 11 are non-overlapping channels.

                I recommend you Wimax 3.5Ghz but in some countries it is illegal to use. It's radius is around 10 Km

                  you might just wanna try another channel to get a better signal.
                  No belkin router is so bad that you have no signal at all.

                  Things like concrete with rebar (walls, floor etc.) in your house are able to ruin it all.

                  look further before you buy another router for nothing.
