I have a issue to bring up i don't have carrier service so I'm using my neighbors wifi(permission granted) but I only get about 10 or 15 seconds on it before it cuts out n I have too pull down nav bar not press wifi til it comes back on its super aggravating when I'm gaming I play Modern Tank Battles n I've played around with the connectivity labs in Intelligent wifi n I also run through a modded VPN which is great it's HotSpot Shield VPN but is there a way I can strengthen the wifi I'm about 50 yards from her house n I'm also in a 60 foot fifth wheel trailer with aluminum siding.

Sorry but it sounds like your at the range that the wifi will reach. It also doesn't help your in a metal box which is also blocking the signal the only way would be to move closer to the wifi or ask if they would allow you to install a wifi repeater in your place that might boost the signal some.

Hello,

The best thing is either you move closer or ask for a signal booster like the suggester above said.

Another thing you can do is get a small MiFi device that you can use. It will make your device more efficient enough and allow you to do gaming, online streaming etc.

Are you connecting to 5 GHz or 2.4 wi-fi connection?
