High Gain Wifi Antenna for Under $10

Sorry, no proxy fun quite yet. All in due time. I wanted to let everyone know about an interesting post that my friend Ciric over at cirictech.com just put up documenting how he went about building a wifi antenna for me back during finals week. He made it out of a piece of wood, a coat hanger, some coax, and an SMA connector. Very cheap, but surprisingly effective. In out tests, the antenna gave us very good gain, giving strong signals to access points from half a mile away. It's worth a look if you're in the market for a wifi antenna, or if you go wardriving on a regular basis.
