Hi, I have just bought a caravan on a holiday park and i can pick up a wifi connection off the park next door but because the signal is weak i keep getting disconnected.
So i was wondering if there was a devise to boost the signal to get a better speed and a more reliable connection,I have tried Hawking HWU8DD Hi-Gain USB Wireless-G Dish Adaptor but it was so confusing and didn't work so is there any thing else i could try that isn't to complicated or to expensive bearing in mind i can't get any usb dongle 3g signal at all and i have no land line,i am using a vsta laptop.................

The only option is to use something to get more signal.

One option is to buy a receiver that is more powerful, though it sounds like you may have already tried this.

One way I know does work, but is a bit DIY, requires you to have a wii dongle with coax aerial input.

If you have one of these, you can make your own dish, which will grab more of the signal for you.

Something like this:
