How to catch weak wi-fi inexpensively?

Question

Computer networks

Good afternoon, colleagues!

There was a need to work remotely outside the city. Given: there is a wi-fi router in a neighboring house, which barely reaches my house. You need a stable signal to work on two laptops.

I'm confused in the search. I understand that I need some kind of amplifier-antenna-adapter. Are there acceptable solutions within two or three thousand rubles? To direct the antenna towards the router, plug it into the outlet and there is Internet. Ideally, if the GSM signal would also be received. Or is it all from a crafty and simple cheap way?

Thank you!

screw a homemade directional wifi antenna
, and there are simple homemade products with high gain. If you position the antenna of the router exactly in focus, you will get an excellent connection.

Answer 2

You need to install a pair of directional antennas, one for transmitting and one for receiving. You can just try to take the router to the roof, to the window, buy a directional antenna ...

Answer 3

On the receiving side, put the router in bridge mode. If this is not enough, then cling to an external antenna.
