I live on dorm at school and the school distributes internet but the signal keeps dropping from low to not connected then reconnects then repeats the procedure every 20 minutes or so….i guess my real question is, would a wireless booster help me? and how do i configure it for my school’s security, given that i have to type in my ID number and password to connect.

If they use an internal blocker, booting it would be, well, hell. Youd need probably a hard network. Id say your better off buying a sprint card, because your scool will probably not allow a booster, and even if they did, it would only work minimally.
they would have to install it on the network. you won’t have the access to do it.
Sure you can! As long as you know the Network ID and the password, then you’d be great!
Wireless Booster might not work due security with school network. I strongly think the school network will block. Routers. Routers-DHCP give IP Address, Subnet Address, Default Gateway. School network and your router will cause conflict over the network. Force to shut down the network due security. However I would suggest trying to Range Extender with Aluminum Foil. The Foil will boost your signal with one way.
I have included a website on how to increase your wireless signal.
Try to Setup Network Connection with your ID and password to allow you connect network. Network Connection-New Connection & Follow Setups with LAN network.
Hope this works.
