I have seen people build waveguide antenas out of coffee cans and pringles cans, search 'cantena' in google. I have personally tried but not with the right equiptment, It worked for a short while and I could see the signal 4 miles away but couldnt get anything out of it, I have heard of people getting a good connection up to 8 miles away.
My new router(netgear) doesnt have a detachable antena so it kinda wrecks my chances of using that one for that.
