I have a networking card that allows me to get in touch with signals.. But basically, what I need, is to know if there is any program that will strengthen my signal from my antennae. I know I can just get a better antennae, but I wanna know if there is a way I can strengthen my signal using a program. Help?

Get in touch with signals? You mean a wireless network card. As far as I know, you can't strengthen the signal with some program.

Hmm, I can't help, but I'll put this in the Help forum for you, because you might get some more replies there. =)

I'm not too experienced in hardware, but from my understanding you're using a wireless network card to tap into a wireless hot spot, or something. In anycase the speed would be determined by the specifications of the card and how far away you are from where you're taping into.

Don't forget to take interference or other obstacles e.g. walls into account too, as they'll also weaken the signal. You'd probably be best off sitting next to the access point :D

Are you supposed to be able to get into this WAP (Wireless Access Point) or are you trying to show computer hacking skillz to the ladies?
