Try changing the place of your computer. this usually help some times signals does not reach at specific part of room.

set your router on a high place. this has always worked for me.

use parabolic devices that enhance your signal for your wireless router…
you can also use the chinese strainer hack and a usb wifi dongle hack to receive signals up to 5km away.

Adjust wireless antenna height, placement, alignment. Try moving it all over.
Configure the wireless part of the router to use a different channel. Perhaps the default channel is already being used in your area or is just really noisy. There are channels 1-11 to choose from. (Again this is on your wireless router configuration) If it is on 1, change it to 6 or 11. If it is on 11 change it to 1 or 5. If it is on 4-6 try either 1 or 11 and see which ones are better signal.
Keep in mind that the signal strength isn’t the only measurement…make sure it doesn’t drop the signal. An okay signal that is stable is better than a great signal that drops out from time to time (which can happen)
When “tuning” your antenna position, keep in mind that walls might have metal in them that causes interference too. Try to provide “line of sight” when ever possible between wireless devices. Glass is fine. Maybe putting your antenna closer to the window if you are trying to get the signal somewhere else in the house… or putting it closer to a hallway so there is less physical material between the two places.

I wanted to use my laptop in a room that had a bad connection so I ran a cable to move the router closer and it worked fine. Then I bought another non-wireless router to use where my connection came in and daisy-chained it to the wireless router so I could get closer to the room I wanted to use. It works great now.

You could also try a multi polarized antenna. However this only works with certain network cards usually PCMCIA cards for a laptop.
