Before you go out and buy repeaters or special antennas, check and see what speed you are connecting to on your router. If you are connecting at max speed (11 for 11b, 54 for 11g, 108 for preN) and you are not dropping your connection, don't worry about low signal. That is a very misleading diagnostic tool, in itself it is virtually meaningless. If you are having problems, then go ahead and implement some of the suggestions.

One major factor in poor reception (other than the above listed reasons) is the location of the router in comparison to other electronic devices. If you have the router sitting next to a wireless phone or receiver, or if its near a microwave, or other high output electrical systems, you may want to look at moving it away from them as they cause interference, and boosting the signal will only cut through so much of that.

By a router with a wider range. Or move the router so it's level with where you most use your pc/laptop - i.e. upstairs if that's the case.
