You hadn't finished drinking it yet? ;-)
I saw that "fix"--it's clever, but it makes the signal directional.
It
will be OK if all the "receivers" are in one direction from the antenna.
Another "fix"--obtain a longer antenna made for the frequency band,
which is surely 2400~2480 MHz. Make sure the connector mates with the
connector on the router!
This may work, since you _almost_ have enough signal now, and another dB
or two may make all the difference.
