Ok, WIFI is a marketing term, plain and simple. Like Burger King calls their burger a Whopper, it's still a burger. If you have a wireless router is the generic term (burger) and WiFi is the Whopper, just a marketing gimmick.

Now for your situation. You can try going out and buy a new 802.11g wireless router and a new wireless card that is a 802.11g card for your computer and you might get a slightly better signal. Unfortunately, it's probably not going to help out a whole lot. What I would try doing is move the router closer to you. Another option is to run a cat5 cable from the router to your computer which is the best and fastest approach but you have a cable running through your house.

Hope some this helped. Off to fix some buggy DLL at work today.
