I use a wirless router too and it works all the way to the end of the street(it's locked up nice and tight) But I have noticed the signal strength indicator on the DS drop alot easyer than my laptop, it dies of at the end of the driveway. I am still curious to see this booster.
I'm Philo too, well a mistizo really.

well i really didnt make it but oh what the heck my orginal i did make hardly added a good signal this one i got on da net and edited it is great heres pic and sorry for da wait :C

all u do is cut it in half so 2 sections.

paste foil on the top bit cut it out cut the other part out.

get a blade and cut on each line theres about 6.

cut a hole where the x's are for the router antenna or wifi usb if its a soft ap then past the 6 tabs on each line and should look like a satelite

I don't think that is a wifi booster. It looks more like a chocolate wrapper, like Guyver said. I'm not sure that a lolly wrapper will boost your wifi.

If you use the foil from the choclate wrapper to reflect the wifi signal towards your DS then you have your very own home made wifi booseter, but don't forget to lick all the chocolate off. I'm going to start selling them on Ebay. Free delivery

ok, i'm confused,

1) is this for the Nintendo USB Wifi?
2)* can it be used for a normal wireless router?
3) can Ya start from the begining when you are trying to tell us how to do it. (like what we need and what it requires)
4) Better quality pics?

2)* can it be used for a normal wireless router? yes it can gives a longer and better signal.
3) can Ya start from the begining when you are trying to tell us how to do it. (like what we need and what it requires) read all my post in this thread and youll find it
