Sure you can, but the measurements are extremely critical at those wavelengths.\
There was an article I had womewhere where you could make a reflector out of
cardboard and Aluminum or aluminium for those across the pond. It was shaped
and would provide a bit of gain for the standard router's antenna.
There is a club in Howell, Mich which has made wireless antennas and had a
long-range point-to-point wireless network of at least a dozen miles. So, yes
it can be done.

Subject: antenna building
I am studying for my general class license. I got to the chapters on
antenna design. I find this very fascinating. I am curious now. If
you can build an antenna to work for ham radio, can you build an antenna
to work for a wireless router? If not why?
