If you can't install dd-wrt on it, your only other option is a repeater.

I have a WRT54G v1.0 mini-PCI wireless card. It would probably need firmware tweaks to get more power out of it, but if you have internal antenna MMCX connectors it'd work great and plug and pray.

Just put 2 on my router and one on my wireless apapter and I'm sitting at "VERY GOOD" instead of mostly "LOW" or at best, GOOD. Seems to work pretty good.
