Wireless Signal Boosters

Is there a way I can boost the receiving power of my computer's wireless card?

My wireless signal is bad and I'm trying to make it better it without having to move my router or buy an access point/signal booster.

1. This looks weird BUT it works http://www.turnpoint.net/wireless/cantennahowto.html
2. Unfortunately, I have not seen a switch or knob on a wireless card to boost the signal. However, I did find an old post about Orinoco Silver cards (I used to have one of them) that allowed for an external antenna. That would help a lot. Your only other option would be to boost the access point with new hardware (new AP or better antennas).
