If you're using a patch or puck antenna, putting a ground plane under it
can work wonders (I've seen 15dB gain in one particular case). I've
been using larger cans to stick the magnetic pucks on, but a piece of
aluminum foil is OK as well. If you can get hold of a datasheet for the
antenna, it could have some information on how the directivity of the
antenna changes with the diameter of the ground plane, which can be
useful if you have problems with reflections from low angles.
