Thanks for the info.

I have looked at the building repeaters and while they are a great idea, it isn't my building / business so can't spend that kind of money on it. I am also aware of the airave but have one big problem...my cell phone is my internet connection. I have a landline phone for phone calls and could use it for dialup (ick), but we don't have broadband internet.

So I guess I will play around with the external antenna some more. I am pretty sure the one I have is right at 7 inches so I will see if I can trim it down and get it to work.

Thanks again.
