Question:My neighbor just got the Live box on 512.

Livebox itself is wifi enabled but I living on the next block of apartments 50m aerial distance cant see the signal unless I go out on my balcony and even then it is a poor signal.There is line of sight btw his house and mine. Will plug in a Linksys router to the livebox and placing it on his balcony do any better? Or is there an easy way to boost the signal?

@Njihia, Level One has a nice Wifi Unit that has a repeater function built-in. You can connect an external antenne, setup the box as a repeater/bridge and I think your problem resolved. PS, I don't remember the model but its not very expesnive either. HTHs.
