I have a cable modem and a desktop computer on the other side of the house and both have to stay where they are. There is a big wide hallway leading to the room with the computer.If I could move the computer a few feet to the left I would avoid a lot of walls. But I can't. is there any kind of device that I could use to change the direction of the signal?
Im using a DIR-655 and DWA-552 wireless N router/adapter from d-link
