Default WiFi Booster antenna

I am in need of a WiFi booster antenna or range extender. I know I can make this but it is for a business and will need to be a professional product.
I set up wireless in my building and it wont reach one part of the building that it will need to. I do not want to move the WAP from its current location because if I do, it wont reach the other conference room that it needs to cover.
So, my question to the wireless gurus is, where do I purchase one and what models are recommended?

Thanks
Snowman

Linksys is a well-known and respected product, and their WRE54G range extender would do well in this instance

That is the exact model I was looking at. From some of the user comments online, it looks like only WEB is allowed. Also, I have a non, name brand WAP. It is a ZOOM product. (I did not buy this, it came with the installation.) I assume the WRE54G would be compatible, but I cant find any specs on the ZOOM site.

WiFi is a standard, so there should be no problem with compatibility.
