hi everyone here's the situatoin

i am getting a faint signal on the balcony of my apartment which is
right on the beach. when there is humidity the signal gets stronger,
when we have less humidity the signal disappears. i want a way to take
that signal and make it stronger, im using an internal b card that came
with my laptop, is there any way i can boost the signal at least??
without connecting it directly to my wlan card since i can't anyways?
thank you

There are many access points supporting a repeater function. It's called
WDS. You may place such an AP on your balcony and (if needed) attach a
better antenna. But make use it does not get wet.
And make sure it is legal to use the WLAN you found!
