You can, no joke, improve the reception of any Wifi antenna by building a reflector (really just an external antenna dish) out of cardboard and aluminum foil, wire mesh or any other conductor.

www.cruschgear.com/ is one set of instructions.

www.freeantennas.com/ is another.

Also, are you using a Wifi Adapter, Cham? If so, try putting it on a USB extension lead and mounting it higher.

lol, this worked for me, although I had to move my PS2, because that was causing interference.

Check your internet settings. You may have it set to automatically disconnect you after a period of inactivity. Either that, or your ISP has an idle disconnect period.

Also, if you have a firewall on it will cut you off almost every 10 seconds, if this is the case check your firewall settings and make it another connection that is without a firewall.(this is assuming it's a windows firewall, anyway that's what I did and it works well now...)
