My house seems to be a black hole when it come to wifi range. The fact that is aluminum sided probably doesn't help. Also, ATT installing my router in the basement may have something to do with the signal strength as well.
As you can guess, my wifi out on the deck where I smoke is sketchy at best. I can get a signal if the HM if I make the correct sacrifices to the WIFI gods, and have the HM positioned just right. Is there any way to attach an external antenna to boost the wifi?
I have a 4.2, with the small USB wifi, so I'm guessing no. Could I use a different wifi adapter? Maybe something like:

Or perhaps :

Or should I just run a network cable out to my deck and put in a weatherproof box?
