Wireless Signal Boosters

WiFi Signal Booster?

My father recently got WiFi for the house but because it's an old house and in the country side it has very thick walls which cut the Wireless signals area to very small. He wants to be able to connect a laptop from a caravan about 7~12ish meters away from the router. He wants a cheap but good wireless signal booster, like the ones that recieve the packets and resend them so you can increase signal or would a bigger antenna be better?
