Not really unless you were to run an ethernet cable from your existing network to a location outside of the current wi fi range.
A repeater would be better
https://www.tomsguide.com/us/best-wifi-extenders,review-2225.html
It hears the wi fi signal so you put within the signal range near where the signal still can be heard near the extent of the current wi fi range. It will hear the signal and then re-transmit it to extend the signal range .

You might be able to use a gain antenna of 5dbi 2dbi is lost in the cable usually so it is 3dbi which is twice the level

another method would be a omni directional antenna facing the coverage range . But it is beaming in one direction .
which means more signal strength in one direction

Try moving the wireless router around and or higher.
If the wireless router is in a different room and the room has concrete walls of foils insulation in the walls, this will weaken the wireless signal. AND/OR
You can connect add a antenna to your computer. Have a look at this device. Normal 0 USB High Gain Antennas www.pricewatch.com/gallery/networking/high_gain_antenna

Take it back to where you got it, if it's new.
Otherwise it could be the Wall Wart/Power Supply or something internal.
I suppose it could also be a bad setting or flash. Try a Hard Reset. Usually holding the Reset Switch for 10+ Seconds Resets everything to factory

My smart TV has home wifi but is intermittent. Router is in the next room. Tv can find Belkin but then my house wifi is unticked. Does it not work for a smart TV? Why does it switch off my wifi?

Your set may have a defective wi fi detection circuit that is causing all the grief. I had to return a laptop for this reason.
Maybe the signal is weak - try raising the router as high as possible off the floor and also try putting a deflector behind the router to direct the signals in the direction of tv set to maximize strength.

I have a linksys wireless router (WAG160n) and need to extend the signal from my house to an outbuilding where I have my office. I can get a signal in the front room of my office but not in the main part....

You will need to install an WIFI extender in the front room of your office which will then extend the signal to the rest of the out building. I've included a link on Amazon to a very simple, easy to set-up extender that you can set-up with the push of a button. Once you set-up/configured the extender near your existing router following the simple instructions, you can then move it to the front of your office. Best of luck!

Wireless-g router can only extend it's wireless signal up to 50 to 75 feet. You can use a wireless signal extender to be able to extend the signal further. And yes, you may have password on the wireless network.

The possible cause is the router is not able to extend the signal to that range. Try using a range extender to boost your wireless signal. Signal strength depends on the router. So adding a range extender should solve this issue

Router is too far away to hook up

There are a few things you can try to extend your wifi signal.
If the antenna of the router is removable, then you might want to look at antennas with a higher gain, keep in mind they must have the same type of connector as your router. If your antenna is not removable, or this doesn't get you the range you need, then you may want to look into a wireless repeater, this you need to just place at the edge of where your wifi connection drops off, and it will extend the signal by rebroadcasting it.

Cheers!

Connecting 2 wireless routers

As a wi-fi technician, it is not recommended to extend the wireless signal using another wireless router. Having 2 wireless routers will just cause conflict to your wireless network. If you still have time, please replace the router with a Wireless Access Point (WAP54G). WAP is easy to setup. Just plug it to one of the ethernet port on the back of your router and run the setup CD that came with it, that's it. It'll extend your signal.

If your main concern is just extending your wireless signal to another far place outside your house, Wireless Range Expander (WRE54G) can also be used. It is a similar device like an Access Point but its signal extending capability is more powerful than Access Point. Its also easy to setup, just the setup CD that came with it.

You can also contact the Linksys toll free tech support # at 1800-3267114 if you wanna resolve the issue over the phone. Hope that helps.

-Regards
