You can try to change the channel on your wireless router. for example most routers by default use channel 11, change it to some thing else and try for some time.. Also do you have any security on your router? if not I would recommend that first.. atleast have a wep security on it.... Signal boosters are good but you need to consider if there are other issues like your neighbour might be using the same SSID as yours.. change that to something else...
All the best...
