    My apartment complex shares wireless internet. The problem is, the router is hooked up on the opposite side from my apartment and i dont get that strong of a signal. My laptop is fine because i use the WiFire adapter but i can not keep a strong connection with my ps3. I am looking at either something that will repeat the wireless(if possible) or something that has a stronger wifi to ethernet adapter. Does anyone have any good suggestions?

    I use a wireless bridge/repeater
    EnGenius ECB-3500 It’s just a B/G type device

    You can configure it to receive the signal from your access point/wireless router and rebroadcast over a large area + it has a hard wire Ethernet connector that you can attach to a computer
