I have a student away at university. The wifi signal in the dorm is very weak so going online and working is very frustrating for the student.
They have a new HP laptop and connecting to the dorm wifi but weak connection and slow.
No Ethernet in the dorm rooms just the university wifi.
Any suggestions to help increase signal strength and get better connection to the school wifi?
Thank you.

Hi
You could try a USB wireless adaptor plugged in to a USB extension cable ,you then can move the adaptor about until you get a stronger signal.
