Do you use the DYI reflector thing??? Have you had success with it that is noticeable??? I've heard mixed reviews but I've never tried it.
I figure those with no success might not be doing it like they should. Using a reflective surface it's important to get everything just right to focus the signal.
What's your opinion???
Can you buy some kind of a linear to boost the signal or one that can suck the signal in to a Lap Top . I have a D-Link wifi plugged in to mine but I still need to be close enough to get the connection .
Power range is limited by the FCC most devices put out from 50-200 milliwatts.

The health implications of microwave radiation is a hot debate, with conflicting information coming out from one set of studies to the next. I think separating the industry funded studies from independent studies is best here, and the results seem to indicate, at least in terms of using low power non-ionizing radiation put to our skull (talking on a cell phone), that there are observable deletrious health consequences of their usage. As for using wireless devices further away from your person, I think the effects are much less serious.

Can someone enlighten me as to the difference between having a Router with a built-in modem versus having the router and as modem separate units? I have Comcast/Xfinity and have one of the devices that combines the two, and my wifi is beyond horrible.

I wouldn't recommend wearing one as a hat or athletic support. But other than that I doubt it's any more harmful than cell phones at our ears or being swamped with EM waves from every possible direction 24/7 like we are now.
Don't us it as a pillow either.

Get on the "windsurfer" bus. It works.
Of course, results may vary.

Clever. It seems to me that such a thing could be used to shield a person or area of a room, somewhat?

It's probably expensive and will completely destroy your cell reception. That doesn't stop me from wanting to paint my whole house with it. It'll turn any single room or closet into a makeshift Faraday cage in order to take a break from the constant barrage of EMF radiation.
For when one wants to achieve maximum clarity.

I think the inverse square law applies, right?
