Regarding increasing the WiFi range

[morland]

Hi,

Courtesy my short-term memory, I have forgotten the site where I read an article that the standard WiFi 802.11a/b/g or whatever has a limited range and how the range can be drastically increased with the use of either some special booster or some extra gadget???

Can someone help me here please. I hope the experts know what I am talking about

Thanks.

No, it just allows you to boost the router power level from the default 28 Mw to 251 Mw.
