  1. My son came across this video and it really works….our signal strength spiked from two bars to four…Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. that was a good idea

  3. @stopwhining1
    The foil doesn’t amplify it, only focuses it in the direction the parabola is pointing

  4. Thanks man you got me from one bar. Could barely use the internet let alone game with it, which is what i mostly use my computer for, to 3 which is workable. Would prefer at least four bars, but it’s staying at three and not moving. I will try and mess with it more to see if i can boost it a little bit. Oh and putting the foil next to my computer doesn’t help at all. It was better at the router. Thanks though.

  5. soooo bull

  6. @rngedx for cutting the aluminium foil of course…. ==

  7. ROFL

    This is a funny story: It’s not like it wasn’t working before, but I just did that just for kicks, and it’s already running ten times faster than it already was, and it was pretty fast back then.

    THANKS!!!

  8. dude mine doesnt have an antenna

  9. what if i wrap the antennas with foil? I want the signal to be extended, but not in any general direction
