One of the steps that increased my signal in a very good way (20% more signal or so) was to update my wireless card driver from 9.0.37 (newest driver available at the lenovo site) to 9.0.39 (available in the intel website)
WARNING: No NOT uninstall the previous driver!!! or access connection will not work. Just update the older driver with the newer one.
This is the link to get the new drivers from intel:

With the older driver, i was getting just 1 bar of signal (in the Xp wireless connection network status), now i have 4 bars
Hope this work for you too
Sorry for the bad english.
