Absolutely... Called a WiFi repeater (they make cell phone repeaters, but this is a specific WiFi repeater).... See a few different models at
I use the VP2210 - Outdoor Wi-Fi base station (uses the high roof/12 FT above the ground of my RV, antenna for Wi-Fi, and repeats inside for use on my 'puters/PDA's etc.).
Can you hook a outside antenna "Picking up a hot spot"to something and broadcast it around the house with out going threw a computer. Thanks Ed
I have a D link dwl-800ap+. To set it up I think you have to add a mac address how do I get the mac on a hot spot. Thanks Ed

Technically, this is what an AP in repeater mode would do. Find one that supports an external antenna.
maybe download and install Boingo software, it shows ap mac
Don't suppose you're trying to use someone else's signal and use it throughout your house? Nah, you wouldn't do that, it's not legal.
