Dan,
You may want to contact Jonathan Fletcher of this MacGroup. He found
some little "converter" boxes that plug into my electrical outlets.
Lee Larson had also said that they were a possibility for me. I have a
studio, built in my back yard, which was impossible to get a signal to
with my router. The converter idea did the trick for me. Also, my
daughter, who uses her computers in my studio, needed to reset her
internet preferences to Ethernet, rather than AirPort. (We don't have
an AirPort at this point.) My modem, from whence cometh the signals,
is an Ethernet one. The main trick, however, is the converters!
Perhaps one would do; Jonathan used two (one near my main computer and
one in the studio). The prices of these gadgets vary widely.

You could use an Airport Express as a wireless as a "booster".

Does anyone have any experience/advice on boosting the strength of a
wireless router's signal in a home? Our router works fine in most of
the house, but there is one room in the back that we use often where
the signal is very spotty. Is there some "booster" device that I could
locate in or near that room to get better reception?
