I am using Beetel 220BX + Linksys WRT54G (wifi router + switch) in my houseThe WiFi signal does not some of corners and I cannot reposition the above equipmentWhat is the manner in which I can make the signal reach some of the corners at the lowest cost. (also Where can I get any suggested equipment in Bangalore ?)as you may have guessed I am quite greenRegardsSanjay
 
you can try to get a wireless repeater for your self. or setup another wifi router as a repeater.

Try at Computer Warehouse, 7th Floor, Barton Center, MG Road, Bangalore. Phone: 25091050 / 25091051
 
i was in similar situation some months back. here are the things thats i have done to get signal every where in our duplex house

1) upgrade to ddwrt firmware on Linksys wireless router
Linksys WRT54G/GL/GS/GX - DD-WRT Wiki

2) set wireless tx power to value of 100 or more in wireless advanced settings, this value defaults to 28. max allowed is 251. setting it too high, will make your neighbors also get your signal
