    Without drilling or making other changes to the laptop case to install connectors for external antenna, is there any other less intrusive way to boost the wifi reception? The wifi network is not as healthy in Canada as it is in other parts of the world, so rather than walk for miles back and forth, trying to locate a good signal, it would make life much easier to boost the sensitivity of the reception.

    Any thoughts? Thnaks.
