There is some card either a Netgear or Linksys that is available at Staples that is supposed to have increased range or sensitivity for "G". The building super at the synagogue where we put in Wifi wanted to reach the network in his office which is downstairs and through several cinderblock walls. I told him to buy another wifi router and I would set it up in the room above his as the signal was weak there too. But he got this card instead on the advice of the Staples 'experts' which didn't even detect the signal. Anyway, you might be better off with the ASUS wgl thing as it has multiple antennae and can be run with it's own power supply or one of the 'travel router' devices. If you get one of the Buffalo or Linksys that use DDWRT you can pump up the power outage from 28mW to 250mW but that's not going to help transmission from the existing cards....
