QUESTION POSED ON: 15 January 2007
I live on a boat and get my Wi-Fi signal across the water from another boat that broadcasts. I need to make the incoming signal stronger and then broadcast it throughout my boat. What should I get?

You should get a Linksys relay. The Wireless-G Range Expander will expand the range of your wireless network.
