sorry for the misunderstanding then ...

it realy depends, if its a wifi strength issue it mostly can not be solved via software ... there are some wifi sticks that can regulate the power they send / receive with via software, but if the stick / wifi connection point does not support that, you can only add additional hardware (a repeater) or move the devices closer together / remove obstacles in between ...

you can also try switching the channel (usualy routers have a setting to switch channels), because if you have more wifi networks in your neighborhood that operate on the same channel as yours, they can effect the quality of your wifi ...

metal obviously is a huge interference factor, but power sources that are not well isolated could also influence the quality of your wifi ... where we get back to my original questions ... where is the router located, how far is your laptop / pc away from it, and whats in between ...

also make sure you have the wifi antennas striaght up for highest reception ...

| = good direction, / \ - = not good directions for your antennas
