Make a Wi-Fi Booster Antenna with a Drinking Straw
by Jonas Blake on Aug.27, 2009, under Life Upgrade
Rather than heading to the store to buy the $30 Wi-Fi booster antenna, this video shows you how to make your own for about $0.05, using only a big drinking straw and some wire.
The procedure is pretty simple, and totally worth not having to buy the expensive extender.
Caution: You do need a soldering iron for this!
