Check out this list of 20 online references to allow you to ween yourself from Wikipedia. Of course, who would want to do that? Scholastici.us has a nice list including Encyclopedia Britannica and Oxford English Dictionary.

Lifehacker had a post from freeantennas.com on how to boost your wireless signal using household products. Some reported gains of 100%, but others found gains of only 5%. But of more interest is a link to another post that shows you how to change your router from a $60 to a $600 one by hacking the firmware. Might be worth a try (at your own risk).
