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!
