Antenna extension for PCI wireless card?

Yes, you can get or even make an antenna to amplify the wireless signal.
Different brands of WiFi cards use various connectors on the back for attaching
an external antenna. Honestly, eBay has a great sample of companies selling
WiFi antennas.

I have a stock of antennae to go with the Orinoco WiFi cards I sell my clients.
Most of the time in a home network, the signals are strong enough and the
interference from other electronics low enough that an antenna is not required.
I have had a couple of problematic home/SOHO WiFi installations which required
an antenna or two... Ben Myers
