IF your router uses a detachable arial.
the rule is, the higher the DB No, the higher the gain...
as in, your transmit and receive power will increase with a higher gain replacement, and so your distance also increases for a given connection speed and quality signal.
for every 3db increase, you get around twice the range and/or signal strength, but keep in mind thats a generic rule for line of sight with nothing in the way for outside use, so it will be slightly lower inside, but still valid increases.
also, manually settiing your connected speed slightly lower also increases power output and receiveing quality OC.
