[QUOTE="Geon106, post: 91812, member: 21689"] My media centre picks up the internet from my neighbor wirelessly, however i cannot get a really good signal, on average its low, i've attached a bit of metal at the base of the antenna to reflect the signal and now it is sometimes good to very good, but occasionally it can drop back to low for a while. This really has a knock on affect to streaming media such as Internet TV. Does anyone have any tips on how to improve the signal or ways to make better antennas and so forth?
