That is indeed what I was wondering! Thanks.

Apparently you get a a 15db (about 32 mw) gain with the booster and it
is FCC compliant According to what I have read you can have a total,
including boosters, antennas, etc of 36 db without the FCC bothering
you.

The folks at Linksys seem to be selling what they're calling a signal
booster. Any insights on FCC approval?

Turn up the volume on your Wireless LAN! The Linksys Wireless Signal
Booster piggybacks onto your Linksys Wireless Access Point (or Wireless
Access Point Router) to increase the effective range and coverage area
of the 802.11b network. The added signal strength also helps speed up
your close-range communications, because every packet comes through
""loud and clear"", reducing retransmissions due to reception errors. 
To install, just stack the Wireless Signal Booster on your Access Point,
move the antennas to the Booster, and attach the Booster's twin cables
to the Access Point -- no drivers or modifications to your setup are
necessary. 
The Linksys Wireless Signal Booster saves wiring costs and helps to
build corporate wireless infrastructure by driving signals even into
those distant, reflective corners and hard-to-reach areas. And it's
perfect for covering large areas in warehouse environments, public
spaces, wireless hotspots, and outdoor venues -- anywhere you need extra
coverage for your wireless LAN.
