I live in an apartment community that has WiFi signal always popping up on my tablet. But the signal is so weak. I was wondering if anyone knows ways and apps that will amplify or boost the WiFi signal, so I will have a strong signal instead of me having to get discounted every 5 minutes. In need of any help, advice, etc cause it is frustrating when you have to over a and over connect due to poor and weak WiFi signals. Ty all in advance and I appreciate any advice I get,
 
I doubt this is a service you legally have access to. If I'm wrong please correct me on the details of the type of account and Router used so I can give more help.

Any shared wireless account should be using a Secured network with sufficient bandwidth for all members or else everybody would be using it and saturating it beyond usability.
 
There really is not a simple solution. You are never going to fix it with software it is fundamental issue with radio transmissions. You have the walls and other obstacles absorbing the signals and at distance the air itself absorbs signal. If you had a PC with a ethernet port I would recommend a outdoor bridge unit...gets rid of the walls and direction antennas help with the distance. With a tablet it gets much more difficult because now you need the outdoor bridge and then a indoor AP to create the wireless signals for your tablet.

You can look at engenius site for equipment but you likely will get the best results just have a internet connection put in your apartment. You could spend at least $100 on equipment and there is no guarantee it will work and it will never work as well your own connection.
