Use a separate wifi range extender

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Alfa-AWUS036NH-Wireless-Long-Range-Screw-On/dp/B0041L3FI8/ref=sr_1_sc_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1379575416&sr=8-2-spell&keywords=alpfa+long+range

2W power

But take care with power ratings, i believe it could have vaporized my
laptop's internal wifi when I used it on that laptop.
