A few things you could do here:

I use one of these:
http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=113180
7dayshop Long Range Wireless N 150Mbps USB 2.0 Adapter - Black £9.99 inc del.

Or you could try a pair of these:
http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=113205
7dayshop 200Mbps HomePlug / Powerline Ethernet Network Adapter £36.69

Or both! I've got 2 BT Homehub 2's; one does the ADSL and gives off a
wireless signal.
There's an ethernet cable to the homeplug adaptor, and the opposite at
the other end of the building.
The second home hub isn't connected to ADSL, but is configured as a
wireless repeater and also acts as an ethernet LAN hub.

That way, we've got full strength wireless at both ends of the
building AND a wireless power network for the grand sum of £50!
(NOTE: You can pick up BT Homehubs for a pound or two at car boots or
about £5 on ebay. Or ask a friend or relative for their old one!)

Another note: You'll need to follow quite a technical guide to do that
trick with the 2 homehubs, but you can create a powerline network
extremely easily. Literally just plug them in!

I have sky wireless and even with their new up-to-date modem I am finding
it hard to transmit wirelessly around my flat, which isn't that big.
My partner has apple products I am on PC predominately.
Any tips for a good wireless booster?
