Options to Extend Wireless Range for Acer Aspire One
I bought an Acer Aspire One for my daughter because it was inexpensive and wireless. It turns out she does not have good access to wireless. Are there any other options for connecting this computer (e.g., external modem)? Or do I need to consider another laptop?

I'll assume for now that by "wireless" you are referring to WiFi since your question did not specify. Since the aspire one is alimited to 802.11g, its range may not be as good as 802.11n. You could try a USB plugin 802.11n addon assuming the router supported 802.11n - this would extend the range ans speed of the connection. Here are some options. However, given the details provided in your question, it should be noted that this advice may not be applicable.
