Make a Wi-Fi Extender

Plagued by unreliable Wi-Fi connectivity? Just found a cheap and relatively easy way to boost a wireless routers signal strength by creating a simple parabolic reflector dish to direct Wi-Fi signals to your intended receivers.

Print out the template on a sheet of regular paper. You can actually scale the image to a larger size while maintaining the relative dimensions for a stronger focus. First, cut out the template pieces, then use a glue stick to affix foil to the front of each piece. Use a knife to make cuts on the indicated slits and bend the reflector to fit the six tabs into the respective holes.

Step 3: Attach onto the Router

Slide the booster over the existing antenna of your router and point it in the desired direction.
