After get know the Wifi Signal Booster (DIY), u have the idea how to boost up your wifi signal… On the other hand, the signal receiver also very important.
Most of the laptop now a days already equipt with internal WIFI receiver, for this internal WIFI, i am still looking how to enhance the receiver. At the mean time, i found a PoorManWifi tutorial while i am googling on the DIY Wifi Booster.
- Get a checp Wifi USB adapter, if you have budget, get a better quality will be add advantage
- Get a parabolic cookware or any similar kind of bowl shape, and adding some hand made DIY
- Done, you will get some thing like mini satelite or so call “mini astro”, point to the direction of the Wifi signal comming from, or outside your house if the signal comming from your next door.
This picture shows that the result of the signal has been increase. probably you can try it out on your home

………You’re serious this can work?? *sweat*
Someone must try and tell me!!
i did not try it b4, but the picture was proven and a lot of article supporting this, even the empty PRINGLES container also can use to be the signal enhancer… i am doing research on that so called “PRINGLES technology”
Wow, I really thought you were joking that day. Now I trust it. Pringles? Are you sure you can? I shall wait, enough surprises for today**….
Woah!! This is soooo cool!!! Very, very useful…:)
YP > ya, another is PRINGLES technology, i recall back when my Uni time, i also find out the text book and the URL written in the text book… still research it… coming up soon
I’m wondering..
Is it really working?
If yes I can do like that even if my roommate laughing at me..
Kesh > i think it works, i did not have tools to test it out… may be u just borrow a USB adapter and test it out 1st… then review it and let me know…
soon if have opportunity i also will test out
this is a cool blog.informative. i will link if u dont mind
Cool. 🙂
If this really works then is a good new!! 😛
I am looking for software that able to test the signal…then try this method, and test before and after…
i still looking for this kinda of software, any one can recomended?
BengBeng > i dun mind, we can have link exchange
wow..this is a surprise
i meant the wifi thingy 🙂
beng beng > ya, i also surprise when saw this mini astro…but it make sense la…i believe it…
These kind of diy antennas Do work , I have built 2 kinds , dish type – multi directional and tube -type , uni- directional ( made out of dryer exhaust pipes coffee can lid ).
Have had a 8-10 db gain . with the Uni-directional . 5-8db gain ( but more networks detected ) with the uni-directional
EDIT :5-8db gain ( but more networks detected ) with the **uni**-directional
** Should have been Multi -directional
Brian > wow, u have tested out, that great, another people comfirm this method is useable…
wow..i’ve heard of this before, i think from reading engadget, haha.. no need for buying the expensive signal booster..
using aluminum warper also can. just find any bowl share plastic will do…

This section is Comment for my topic, if you would like to comment on my English, kindly send me Email [email protected] next time.
Jon, don’t correct other people’s grammar if you are going to use the wrong form of “you’re” doing so. You were looking for “your” not “you’re”. Thank you.
Very itneresting article. Wonder what could different size of “dishes” and placement of the adapter can do.
LOL. Jon, seems like the only language you speak is english and you don’t know it too well. What are you going to do now? Well replied both Jim and icalvyn!
Jim > yeah, you found JIM mistake…
antonio > i think jon will only keep quite, and dun dare to speak anymore… 😀
Yes it works.
Using someone else’s wireless signal isn’t very nice; so you should talk with them first and ask =)
i think it will works, last time i tried the alternative method which is using a parabolic shape thingy and wrap aluminium foil on it, then i place my wifi adapater in the center and shoot out of my window, a gain of access point and be seen on my monitor. but sadly, most of it are WEP. i guess when this year end holiday, i think i am going to buy this chinese cookware and a new wifi adapter to try with. mine is not those usb stick adapter but is a big one then place on the desk.
Nic, i am looking for WIFI HACK, soon WPA and WEP is will not against me…
