Improved Wireless Signal

[LinzKaye13]

I recently installed a wireless network- with a WRT54G Linksys router, at my house I would like to get signal in a motor home that is a little more than 100 ft from my router. Because I have aluminum siding on my house (and trying to go outside my house and into a motor home) getting signal is extremely difficult. But, I have been able to get signal (5.5 Mbps) with my DELL Inspiron 6000- Dell Wireless 1350 WLAN Mini-PCI Card, but I can't get any signal with my 2.4 Ghz Linksys Wireless-G Notebook adapter on another notebook. All I want is to be able to pick up that 5.5 Mbps on the other notebook (I don't need any more than that). Does anyone have any ideas to improve the signal or the pick up of the notebook card- antennae boosters-better wireless cards?? Anything?? I only need to pick up this signal for a couple of more months but it would be greatly appreciated if anyone had any help.
Thanks.

You can try replacing the antenna's on your Linksys router with new hi-gain ones. Linksys sell's high-gain antenna's for your specific model router for around $40. Also, you could look into getting an outside wifi antenna.

Maybe position the router and/or adaptor so that the signal goes through a window instead of wall.

Well I would except the closest window is the opposite side of the house than the motorhome- I have moved it as close to the door as possible (but cord space it limited)
