I have Wi-Fi card in my dell laptop (802.11
g)..It works fine around my house up to 200
feet. I wonder if there is such a booster
that I can plug into the card that would pick
up signals from my home router (Linksys) from a
few miles away. I like to roam around parks
(at least a few miles) while working on my
laptop. Is this possible?

A couple miles will be tough because there are
normally many obstructions between your home router
and your laptop...But you can increase your range
significantly with the use of a high gain omni
antenna sitting on a pole or mast above your
house...
We have some here: wlanmall
/antennas-omnidirectional-c-4_60.html]2.4 GHz Omni Antennas
Most of the Linksys bridge/APs have RP-TNC antenna
connectors so you will need the appropriate RP-TNC
to N-Male LMR-400 Cable.
