World of Wireless

You know what really Grinds My Gears? Slow Wireless Internet Connections. We live in a society where we have to have everything we want exactly when we want it. We can try and deny this, but the simple fact is that instant gratification has taken over and completely crippled patience as a virtue. When you combine this with probably the greatest technological advancement ever, the internet, one starts to understand where frustrations can arise. There are two different types of cable modems that dish our wireless connection: G and N. G has a standard listed indoor range of about 125 ft. and about 460 ft. outside. N has a standard listed indoor range of about 250 ft. and about 820 ft. outside. The problem with these distances are that any interference what-so-ever can cut the wi-fi signal down to 50%. In some extreme cases the signal won't go over 25 ft.! What are your experiences with slow wi-fi signals and have you ever tried something completely out of the box to try and boost the signal to make your internet faster?
