the case: a working wireless network using a single linksys wireless router, but part of the house that beyond the fireplace and chimney is in a dead zone. machines involved are all powerbooks with airport (not airport extreme) cards.

goal: to get beyond the bricks.

solutions?
second wireless router? probable double nat difficulties
add antenna to linksys? suggestions on how?
move linksys? maybe but not easily
go with 802.11g transmitter? even tho the laptops have only 802.11b will it work?
