about wireless internet...

I never bought no internet or subscribed to its service, so I rely on the wireless LAN built in card on my toshiba l35 satelite laptop computer to catch wireless signals to use the internet, however, it is weak in most areas and sometimes doesn't catch at all, for example, at home, I have to go to the balcony to use it, it won't work in the house. So my question is, how can I make my computer catch wireless internet better, and get a better signal? Are there special antennas for that? Any tips about wireless internet?

So basically your stealing wireless internet from other people, as you've stated that you don't pay for internet and you "catch wireless signals to use the internet".

aw c'mon datz hella mean, my computer catches the wireless waves itself, its not like I made it do it or nothing, here is how it happens, I turn on the computer and then it says I'm connected to the internet, is it my fault? How is it my fault? That I bought the computer? Or that I turned on the computer? Or that I use the internet that somehow works on my computer? Oh and I go to the balcony so it works better, in the house it is slow and sometimes barely works, so what am I doing bad? And goodness no I don't steal.

Thanks Selmer 2 for the advice and the products you've mentioned, those products look interesting, I will go to the store and see what they got.
